Prototype of a Clinical CT Device Combines Dark-Field X-Ray Technology with Traditional Technology

The dark-field X-ray technology has been implemented into a CT scanner appropriate for clinical usage for the first time by a team of researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM). Dark-field imaging adds to the information offered by conventional X-ray imaging. It is now feasible to create 3D dark-field X-ray images using the new prototype.
