To image living cells, lower resolution of three-dimensional reconstructions caused by x-ray lenses and radiation damage should be considered. As a type of developing computational microscopy, coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) is demonstrating its ability to imaging cells at superior resolution without any lens. In this paper, some challenges and corresponding approaches to CDI were briefly analyzed and discussed. Here equally sloped tomography is applied and demonstrates that it can achieve superior three-dimensional reconstructions to conventional tomography from fewer projections.
