New system and method for imaging using radio-labeled substances, especially suitable for studying of biological processes

摘要

An imaging system is based on in-line x-ray optics (3A) arranged in combination with an X-ray detector (3G) to detect radiation from radio-labeled substances within an object (3C) to be imaged. This arrangement will provide a nuclear imaging device with potentially orders of magnitude higher resolution and efficiency and it will moreover be relatively easy to align and to produce and assemble in large quantities.
