This is an open access article under the CC BY license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). abstract: Beam tracking and edge illumination are phase contrast imaging techniques that rely on amplitude modulated x-ray beams to generate sensitivity to refraction and scattering. While each technique has its advantage (“single shot” three-contrast imaging in beam tracking; the ability to work with relatively large pixels in edge illumination), they also share a common drawback, namely that the modulator shields parts of the sample and, thus, prevents those areas from contributing to the image (under-sampling). Sample stepping, by which frames are acquired with the sample in a different position relative to the modulator (sometimes referred to as “dithering”) can produce well-sampled images. However, in computed tomography (CT), stepping must be performed at each rotation angle, enforcing step-and-shoot acquisitions and leading to long scan times. To enable faster acquisitions, fly scan compatible scanning schemes based on “roto-translating” the sample in the modulated x-ray beam were recently developed. This article reviews these schemes and provides practical guidance for their implementation. date: 2024-06 date_type: published publisher: Elsevier BV official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.tmater.2024.100034 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2308006 doi: 10.1016/j.tmater.2024.100034 lyricists_name: Endrizzi, Marco lyricists_name: Hagen, Charlotte lyricists_id: MENDR57 lyricists_id: CKHAG69 actors_name: Hagen, Charlotte actors_id: CKHAG69 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Tomography of Materials and Structures volume: 5 article_number: 100034 issn: 2949-673X citation: Lioliou, Grammatiki; Roche i Morgó, Oriol; Astolfo, Alberto; Zekavat, Amir Reza; Endrizzi, Marco; Bate, David; Cipiccia, Silvia; ...
