The BioMedical Imaging and Therapy (BMIT) facility [1,2] located at the Canadian Light Source, provides synchrotron-specific imaging and radiation therapy capabilities. There are two separate beamlines used for experiments: the bending magnet (05B1-1) and the insertion device (05ID-2) beamline.The bending magnet beamline provides access to monochromatic beam spanning a spectral range of 15–40keV, and the beam is 240mm wide in the POE-2 experimental hutch. Users can also perform experiments with polychromatic (pink) beam.The insertion device beamline was officially opened for general user program in 2015. The source for the ID beamline is a multi-pole, superconducting 4.3T wiggler. The high field gives a critical energy over 20keV. The optics hutches prepare a beam that is 220mm wide in the last experimental hutch SOE-1. The monochromatic spectral range spans 25–150+keV. Several different X-ray detectors are available for both beamlines, with resolutions ranging from 2μm to 200μm.BMIT provides a number of imaging techniques including standard absorption X-ray imaging, K-edge subtraction imaging (KES), in-line phase contrast imaging (also known as propagation based imaging, PBI) and Diffraction Enhanced Imaging/Analyzer Based Imaging (DEI/ABI), all in either projection or CT mode. PBI and DEI/ABI are particularly important tools for BMIT users since these techniques enable visualization of soft tissue and allow for low dose imaging.
