Brief description Low dose methods for detecting early lung disease using x-ray phase contrast imaging. This project will develop a highly sensitive, low-dose x-ray imaging technique for the early detection of diseases of the respiratory system. This technology will have the potential to be used as a diagnostic screening tool to reduce the incidence of respiratory related deaths from diseases such as lung cancer and emphysema.
