Tiny electron emitters inside an x-ray generator could improve medical imaging and cancer therapy. Organic x-ray panels could bring down the cost of medical imaging. Silicon gratings heighten contrast. Researchers get a new tool to determine protein structures. Dark-field x-ray imaging could make for more-accurate mammograms and better security screens. Paleontologists use CT scans to identify unreachable fossils. Quantum Detection of Tooth Decay A new laser device designed to detect the earliest stages of tooth decay could help dentists stop cavities in their tracks. 3-D x-ray videos of species in motion will help scientists understand how they evolved. Better Screening for Breast Cancer Tests show that measuring electrical resistance could lead to a cheap and easy way to detect the disease early. New strides in radar and gait-analysis software show that it's possible to detect when someone is carrying a bomb well before he or she reaches a security checkpoint. [1]
