"is called Hierarchical Phase-Contrast Tomography (HiP-CT) and is an X-ray technique that allows whole organs to be imaged down to a resolution of 1 micron, or 100 times the resolution of a conventional CT scan... increased X-ray performance by a factor of 100 in terms of brilliance and coherence. And the X-rays generated by this device are 100 billion times brighter than what is found in a conventional hospital X-ray" Article contains three videos and there are useful comments.
