Abstract
New finding in this study is a contrast enhancement of microcalcifications in a synchrotron radiation image with refraction mode. The contrast enhancement has obviously a greater contribution than edge enhancement to high sensitivity in detecting microcalcifications in synchrotron radiation image with refraction mode
