Chinese scientists unveil compact X-ray camera for real-time 'see-through' imaging

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Shanghai Jiao Tong University have developed a novel tabletop X-ray ghost imaging system capable of capturing real-time "see-through" videos of fast-moving objects. This innovative method can image dynamic processes like a beating heart or rotating aircraft engines with a reduced radiation dose compared to conventional X-ray techniques. The system, detailed in Communications Physics, offers a simpler, more affordable, and easier-to-operate alternative for applications in medical imaging and non-destructive testing of mechanical components.
