The spatial resolution of X-ray micro radiography
(alike any other imaging method) is the crucial parameter, which
determines the span of possible applications. Its improvement
remains a major experimental and data processing challenge.
From theoretical principles the lower limit of the spatial
resolution of a radiographic method is given by the size of the socalled
point spread function (PSF) of the imaging system. Hence,
details in the radiograms smaller than the size of the PSF cannot
be theoretically distinguished. In the case of high geometrical
magnification, the X-ray spot size becomes the most important
factor for PSF determination. We have successfully measured in
2-D the X-ray spot shape and using deconvolution the spatial
resolution has been improved for high-contrast object up to
three-fold. We have successfully illustrated the approach for real
biological and material structure investigations. Another
possibility for resolution enhancement is sub-pixel micro-shifting
of the X-ray detector used. Although this approach is quite
common for optical imaging, it has not been fully investigated for
X-ray imaging. In our measurements we have used sub-pixel
micro-shifts of the Medipix2 detector. The method is successfully
presented on real objects.
