Abstract

In this paper, we develop a novel phase retrieval approach to reconstruct x-ray differential phase shift induced by an object. A primary advantage of our approach is a higher-order accuracy over that with the conventional linear approximation models, relaxing the current restriction of weak absorption and slow phase variation scenario. The optimal utilization of the diffraction images at different distance in Fresnel diffraction region eliminates the nonlinear terms in phase and attenuation, and simplifies the reconstruction to a linear inverse problem. Numerical studies are also described to demonstrate the accuracy and stability of our approach.
