Dark-field chest X-ray imaging for the assessment of COVID-19-pneumonia

Frank, Gassert et al. use dark-field chest X-ray imaging to assess COVID-19-pneumonia. Dark-field imaging has a higher sensitivity for COVID-19-pneumonia than attenuation-based imaging and provides an ultralow dose alternative to computed tomography imaging for that purpose.
