A collection of references and image links tracing the history of medical imaging technologies, from X-rays and CT scans to MRI and nuclear medicine.
This document is a compiled list of references and image links about the history of medical imaging. It appears to be a collection of sources for a research project or educational material on radiology and imaging technology.
The first section covers computed tomography (CT). It includes biographical references on Allan MacLeod Cormack and Godfrey Hounsfield, along with links to patient information from Cancer Council WA and the FDA on CT safety and radiation dose.
The second section focuses on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It lists sources on the inventors Raymond Damadian, Paul Lauterbur, and Peter Mansfield, as well as a link to NHS patient information on MRI scans.
The document then covers the corporate history of imaging equipment manufacturers. It includes references to Canon's acquisition of Toshiba Medical Systems, the history of Canon Medical Systems, and the Israeli company Elscint and its Twin Flash Spiral CT scanner.
The final section provides a timeline of radiologic technology from the ARRT and a series of image URLs from Radiography 101. These images illustrate the history of radiology from Wilhelm Röntgen and Marie Curie through to CT, MRI, PET, and AI in radiology.
