X-ray Imaging01:24

X-ray Imaging

10.7K
German physicist Wilhelm Röntgen (1845–1923) was experimenting with electrical current when he discovered that a mysterious and invisible "ray" would pass through his flesh but leave an outline of his bones on a screen coated with a metal compound. In 1895, Röntgen made the first durable record of the internal parts of a living human: an "X-ray" image (as it came to be called) of his wife’s hand. Scientists worldwide quickly began their own experiments with...

X-ray Diffraction of Biological Samples

4.9K
X-ray diffraction or XRD is an analytical tool that utilizes X-rays to study ordered structures such as crystalline organic and inorganic samples, polycrystalline materials, proteins, carbohydrates, and drugs.
According to Bragg's law, when X-rays strike the sample positioned on a stage, the rays are  scattered by the electron clouds around the sample atoms. The  X-ray diffraction or scattering is caused by constructive interference of the X-ray waves that reflect off the internal...

X-ray Crystallography02:18

X-ray Crystallography

26.4K
The size of the unit cell and the arrangement of atoms in a crystal may be determined from measurements of the diffraction of X-rays by the crystal, termed X-ray crystallography.
Diffraction
Diffraction is the change in the direction of travel experienced by an electromagnetic wave when it encounters a physical barrier whose dimensions are comparable to those of the wavelength of the light. X-rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths about as long as the distance between neighboring...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray01:20

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray

516
The most common cardiovascular diagnostic test is an X-ray. It produces images of the heart, blood vessels, and adjacent structures.
Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Physics
  • Data Science

Background:

  • X-ray scattering images often suffer from gaps and defects due to experimental limitations.
  • Generic image inpainting methods are not always suitable for the unique structure of reciprocal-space data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a physically meaningful method for healing X-ray scattering images.
  • To fill data gaps and remove defects while preserving image structure and symmetry.

Main Methods:

  • Exploiting statistical tests and symmetry analysis to identify image structure.
  • Copying, averaging, and interpolating data to fill gaps, respecting identified structure and symmetry.
  • Leveraging known characteristics of reciprocal space for reconstruction.

Main Results:

  • Successful reconstruction of X-ray scattering images with large gaps and defects.
  • Identification of diffuse versus sharp features, anisotropy, and symmetry within the data.
  • Extension of data beyond original detector borders.

Conclusions:

  • The presented method provides physically reasonable reconstruction for X-ray scattering data, particularly small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).
  • The method's success relies on the assumption of point symmetry, limiting its applicability to certain wide-angle data.
  • The approach offers valuable structural characterization alongside image healing.
