  • 摘要:Grating-based phase-contrast computed tomography (GBPC-CT) enables increased soft tissue differentiation, but often suffers from streak artifacts when performing high-sensitivity GBPC-CT of biomedical samples. Current GBPC-CT setups consist of one-dimensional gratings and hence allow to measure only the differential phase-contrast (DPC) signal perpendicular to the direction of the grating lines. Having access to the full two-dimensional DPC signal can strongly reduce streak artefacts showing up as characteristic horizontal lines in the reconstructed images. GBPC-CT with gratings tilted by 45° around the optical axis, combining opposed projections, and reconstructing with filtered backprojection is one method to retrieve the full three-dimensional DPC signal. This approach improves the quality of the tomographic data as already demonstrated at a synchrotron facility. However, additional processing and interpolation is necessary, and the approach fails when dealing with cone-beam geometry setups. In this work, we employ the tilted grating configuration with a laboratory GBPC-CT setup with cone-beam geometry and use statistical iterative reconstruction (SIR) with a forward model accounting for diagonal grating alignment. Our results show a strong reduction of streak artefacts and significant increase in image quality. In contrast to the prior approach our proposed method can be used in a laboratory environment due to its cone-beam compatibility.
