Munich team uses dark-field x-ray for COVID-19 pneumonia detection
Scientists at the Technical University of Munich in Germany have reported that a prototype dark-field chest x-ray device is of potential value for diagnosing COVID-19 pneumonia. They found that dark-field imaging has a higher sensitivity than attenuation-based imaging, and that the combination of both is superior to a single modality.
