This picture is of a Siemens Magnetom Aera (a 1.5 Tesla superconducting magnet - a MRI scanner). It was photographed by Ptrump16 and posted on Wikipedia.
Yesterday we introduced you to the primary inventor of the MRI scanner, Dr. Damadian.
Dr. Damadian conceived of and invented it and 2 other men were also soon involved.
Interestingly only the 2 other men received the Pulitzer Prize for this.
Dr. D was apparently overlooked because he is a Creationist Scientist.
But, what exactly is the MRI scanner, what does it do, what kind of images does it make, and how has it changed Medicine?
Today's link will explain all that and more.
