Detection of circulating tumor cells via an X-ray imaging technique

With selective incorporation of gold nanoparticles into tumor cells, individual cancer cells are detected by an X-ray imaging technique.

Time-resolved X-ray PIV technique for diagnosing opaque biofluid flow with insufficient X-ray fluxes

The temporal resolution of the X-ray particle image velocimetry technique is greatly improved by adopting an image intensifier at beamlines with insufficient X-ray fluxes. Proper digital image processing methods are found to be inevitably useful for improving the image quality and enhancing measurement accuracy.
