摘要： X-ray devices for Phase Contrast Imaging (PCI) are often built up with the help of gratings. For large field-of-views (FOV), production cost and complexity of these gratings could increase significantly as they need to have a focused geometry. Instead of a pure PCI with a large FOV, this invention suggests to combine a traditional absorption X-ray-imaging system with large-FOV with an insertable low-cost PCI system with small-FOV, The invention supports the user to direct the PCI system with reduced FOV to a region that he regards as most interesting for performing a PCI scan thus eliminating X-ray dose exposure for scanning regions not interesting for a radiologist. The PCI scan may be generated on the basis of local tomography.

摘要： The present invention relates to differential phase-contrast imaging of an object (108). When reconstructing image information from differential phase-contrast image data, streak- like artefacts (502) may occur. The artefacts (502) may substantially reduce legibility of reconstructed image data. Accordingly, it may be beneficial for removing or at least suppressing said artefacts (502). Thus, a method (400) for regularized phase retrieval in phase-contrast imaging is provided comprising receiving (402) differential phase-contrast image data of an object (108); generating (404) reconstructed image data of an object (108) and presenting (406) reconstructed image data of the object (108). The differential phase-contrast image and the reconstructed image data comprise a two-dimensional data structure having a first dimension and a second dimension. Generating reconstructed image data comprises integration of image data in one of the first dimension and the second dimension of the data structure. A gradient operator is determined in the other one of the first dimension and second dimension of the data structure and the data structure is employed for reconstructing image data resulting in a reduction of artefacts (500) within the reconstructed image data.

In phase-contrast imaging, different types of image information, e.g. absorption image information and differential phase-contrast image information, may be obtained by a single image acquisition process. Individual types of image information comprise different image properties. The present invention relates to a frequency dependent combination of different types of image information to obtain a combined image having improved properties over the individual image information and their respective image information type. Accordingly, an apparatus (56) as well as a method (100) for image processing in X-ray imaging of an object is provided comprising receiving (102) first image information of the object of a first image information type, receiving (104) second image information of the object of a second image information type,wherein the second image information type is different from the first image information type. Subsequently the first image information and the second image information is combined (106) to obtain combined image information of the object, wherein the combination of the first image information and the second image information is a frequency-dependent combination, depending on the spatial frequency of the first image information and the second image information.
