Area of Science:

  • Physics
  • Materials Science
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Multiple-image radiography (MIR) is an advanced phase-sensitive X-ray imaging technique.
  • MIR improves upon diffraction-enhanced imaging, offering simultaneous absorption, refraction, and ultra-small-angle scattering data.
  • Existing MIR methods lack a quantitative imaging model.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a theoretical, quantitative model for multiple-image radiography (MIR).
  • To predict MIR image values based on fundamental physical properties of the imaged object.
  • To validate the analytical model with experimental and simulated data.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized radiative transport theory to model X-ray beam propagation.
  • Modeled the imaged object as a stratified medium with discrete scattering particles.
