The purpose of this work is develop a novel multi-contrast chest x-ray radiography (MC-CXR) imaging system to enable the simultaneous generation of three mutually complementary x-ray contrast mechanisms to enhance the diagnostic performance of CXR for respiratory diseases. The developed grating-based MC-CXR system employs a scanning beam image acquisition scheme in which the patient table is translated at a speed of up to 9 cm/s. The system is capable of accomplishing MC-CXR imaging of an anthropomorphic chest phantom in under 4 seconds, with an air kerma and effective dose that are well below that of a conventional CXR exam.
