Description

We develop an analytical model for three dimensional phase contrast tomography for a pure phase object. The model incorporates an extended source, which is suitable for a laboratory based microfocus x-ray source. From the modeled intensities for the tomographic data set we obtain a model reconstruction and define a reconstruction quality factor that allows us to optimize the tomographic reconstruction for given feature sizes in an object
