Dark-field X-ray microscopy

Dark-field X-ray microscopy is an advanced imaging technique that exploits X-ray scattering to visualize small structures or features in samples, particularly biological specimens and materials at the nanoscale. This method is distinct from traditional X-ray imaging, which typically relies on transmitted X-rays to create images. ### Key Features of Dark-field X-ray Microscopy: 1. **Scattering Detection**: In dark-field configurations, the microscope is designed to detect scattered X-rays rather than those that pass straight through the sample.
