100多年前,Lucien Bull通过他著名的生物高速电影展示了时间分辨成像的杰出科学价值,例如了解昆虫飞行背后的机制[1]。对于X射线成像,同步加速器光源提供光子束,其(i)准平行传播,(ii)具有比实验室源高几个数量级的通量,以及(iii)允许人们利用更复杂的对比模态。因此,同步加速器光的使用是快速成像发展的下一步:采用相衬机制的高速硬X射线电影放射摄影[2,3]。X射线成像提供了研究复杂运动学的机会,例如,动物的进食和运动装置,因为辐射的穿透性揭示了内部信息。
More than one hundred years ago, Lucien Bull showed, by means of his famous high-speed cinematographic movies of living species, the outstanding scientific value of time-resolved imaging, e.g. to understand the mechanisms behind insect flight [1]. For X-ray imaging, synchrotron light sources offer a photon beam that (i) propagates quasi-parallel, (ii) has fluxes that are higher by orders of magnitude than laboratory sources, and (iii) allows one to exploit more sophisticated contrast modalities. The use of synchrotron light is thus the next step in fast-imaging development: high-speed hard X-ray cineradiography employing phase contrast mechanisms [2,3]. Imaging with X-rays offers the chance to investigate complex kinematics of, for example, feeding and locomotion devices of animals, as the penetrating nature of the radiation reveals internal information.
