Correlation of image quality parameters with tube voltage in X-ray dark-field chest radiography: a phantom study

Abstract Grating-based X-ray dark-field imaging is a novel imaging modality with enormous technical progress during the last years. It enables the detection of microstructure impairment as in the healthy lung a strong dark-field signal is present due to the high number of air-tissue interfaces. Usin...
