Why Is Franz Pfeiffer Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Franz Pfeiffer is a German physicist known for his contributions to the development of Phase-contrast X-ray imaging and its applications in biomedical research. Research Pfeiffer contributed to the extension of known imaging modalities such as Differential interference contrast microscopy and Dark-field microscopy to the X-ray regime. In 2006 he demonstrated the feasibility of phase sensitive X-ray imaging with conventional, polychromatic X-ray sourcess and a grating interferometer. This enlarged the potential of X-ray phase imaging for clinical use as before the technique was only possible at synchrotron facilities. Pfeiffer further introduced the extraction of a supplementary signal sensitive to porous microstructure of a sample based on X-ray scattering. His research group at the Technical University Munich demonstrated a range of possible applications of the new modalities in medical and material research.
