Non-invasive imaging broadly encompasses techniques for generating images of the internal structures or regions of an object or person that are otherwise inaccessible for visual inspection. One of the best known uses of non-invasive imaging is in the medical arts where these techniques are used to generate images of organs... inside a patient which would otherwise not be visible. Examples of such non-invasive imaging modalities include X-ray radiography and other X-ray based imaging techniques, such as tomosynthesis. 2, record 2, English, - non%2Dinvasive%20medical%20imaging

Techniques de diffraction-diffusion […] Le phénomène de diffraction-diffusion est un phénomène d’interaction élastique entre les photons X et les électrons du matériau (diffusion de Thomson). Chaque atome diffuse les photons X de façon continue avec une amplitude qui dépend de l’angle 2 [thêta] entre le faisceau incident et la direction considérée. Pour 2 [thêta] = 0, l’amplitude maximale est proportionnelle au nombre d’électrons de l’atome diffuseur. Dans un matériau, les ondes diffusées par chaque atome vont interférer, ce qui va conduire à une réponse totale du matériau non monotone en fonction de l’angle 2 [thêta] . 1, record 4, French, - technique%20de%20diffraction%2Ddiffusion
