Applications of X-ray diffraction analysis in crystalline and amorphous body tissues
Abstract
Elastic scattering of x-ray photons can provide information in a number of areas of tissue analysis in medicine. This paper describes measurements made of two types of tissue to demonstrate three different areas of application:•Data are presented on the differential linear coherent scattering coefficients for healthy and diseased breast tissue with the intention that such results could be used in the design and development of mammographic …
