Simultaneous signal optimization of refraction and attenuation in x‐ray grating interferometry: A case study for breast imaging
The findings suggest that an optimized grating interferometry-based BCT system can improve image quality by effectively combining absorption and refraction signals. This work underscores the need to balance imaging performance with practical implementation constraints, offering a framework that may extend to other imaging applications beyond breast cancer detection.
