By using an energy-resolving photon-counting detector in grating-based x-ray phase-contrast imaging it is possible to reduce the necessary dose. We derived energy weighting factors for phase-contrast imaging. Evaluation measurements with the hybrid photon-counting detector Dosepix were performed. The concept of energy binning implemented in the pixel electronics of this detector allows counting of photons in 16 energy channels. With this technique the spectral information can be obtained pixel wise from one single acquisition. The results presented in this contribution demonstrate the advantages of spectroscopic photon-counting in differential phase-contrast imaging.
