Dark-field X-ray microCT: Pre-clinical research on improved lung disease detection

Dark-field computed tomography uses the wave property of X-rays to provide complementary contrasts in X-ray imaging. In this project, an existing prototype for dark-field CT in mice will be used to explore the use of dark-field contrast in pre-clinical research for improved detection of lung diseases in collaboration with the Helmholtz Center for Health. In addition to experimental work to support the conduct of the preclinical studies, algorithmic research to reduce image noise and dose is planned.

Character of thesis work: experimental medical physics (60%) & image processing (40%).

For more information, please contact: Benedikt Guenther (benedikt.guenther@mytum.de), Simon Zandarco (simon.zandarco@tum.de) or Franz Pfeiffer (franz.pfeiffer@tum.de).

suitable as
  • Master’s Thesis Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics
Supervisor: Franz Pfeiffer
