Fast Small‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering Tensor Tomography: An Outlook into Future Applications in Life Sciences (Small Methods 1/2026)
Front Cover In article number 2500162, Wang, Liebi, and co-workers demonstrate the first high-throughput application of small-angle X-ray scattering tensor tomography (SAS-TT) on a macromolecular crystallography beamline. The image visualizes the collagen fiber network in the human incus, highlighting SAS-TT's potential for fast, non-destructive nanoscale imaging in life science research.
