Effectively, the objective lens in a typical microscope is replaced with software to convert from the reciprocal space diffraction pattern into a real space image. This recorded pattern is then used to reconstruct an image via an iterative feedback algorithm. The beam scattered by the object produces a diffraction pattern downstream which is then collected by a detector. In CDI, a highly coherent beam of X-rays, electrons or other wavelike particle or photon is incident on an object. This reciprocal space diffraction image was taken by Ian Robinson's Group to be used in the reconstruction of a real space coherent X-ray diffraction image in 2007.Ĭoherent diffractive imaging ( CDI) is a "lensless" technique for 2D or 3D reconstruction of the image of nanoscale structures such as nanotubes, nanocrystals, porous nanocrystalline layers, defects, potentially proteins, and more.

Thank you for your continued support and the trust you place in us.A diffraction pattern of a gold nanocrystal formed from using a nano area beam of coherent X-rays. Our cleaning protocols require thorough cleaning of all surfaces including scan rooms, changing rooms and technologist rooms after each patient.įor more patient safety information and a video on what to expect at our centers, click here. Upon check-in, patients may also choose to wait outside or in their car, and we will notify them when it is time for the appointment. In our check-in and waiting areas, we are having patients maintain a safe social distance of six feet. Our centers are open to ensure that you and your patients get the answers you need when you need them most.Īnd we’re taking extra precautions to make sure we provide a safe, comfortable place for all your imaging needs.Īll patients will be asked a series of COVID-19 screening questions upon arrival.Īll patient-facing staff are wearing surgical masks, and we are requiring patients to wear their own mask. Thank you for everything you are doing to meet the healthcare needs of our community. Center for Diagnostic Imaging is now RAYUS Radiology
