Description

Imaging leverages significantly on the unique properties of synchrotron radiation, in particular with the recent introduction of 4th generation facilities. In this lecture, I will showcase some of the latest results, including ptychographic nanoimaging and time-resolved tomographic microscopy and discuss related challenges. I will further elaborate on how some of the tools originally designed for machine diagnostics purposes  have developed into powerful, potentially game-changing instruments with a clinical impact, specifically for breast and lung imaging. The talk has been conceived to provide an “easy-entry” into the fascinating world of modern X-ray imaging.
