Abstract
The work substantiating this thesis has contributed to add some of the missing pieces towards the clinical implementation of the propagation-based phase-contrast breast CT at Elettra, in the framework of the SYRMA-3D collaboration. The project has the ambitious goal of integrating a not yet widespread radiological technique as breast CT into a synchrotron facility environment, proving, in a specific context, the advantages of phase-contrast imaging and its diagnostic impact on one of the most challenging imaging tasks as early breast cancer detection.
