Abstract
A tomographic technique is proposed for reconstruction under specified conditions of the three-dimensional distribution of complex refractive index in a sample from a single projection image per view angle, where the images display both absorption contrast and propagation-induced phase contrast. The algorithm achieves high numerical stability as a consequence of the complementary nature of the absorption and phase contrast transfer functions. The method is pertinent to biomedical imaging and nondestructive testing of samples exhibiting weak absorption contrast.
