So you’ll have to be euthanized but they’ll be able to tell ya what was wrong with ya beforehand. /s

Every specialist is now thinking about what this kind of hi-res imaging can do for them. Heart specialist can now see very detailed images of the heart, etc.

Combine that image with those game goggles and you can hold the image in your hands for inspection.

This is good news. I had always believed the sensitivity of MRI could be improved d@mn near down to the molecule level.

And then autopsied and scanned. After that comes the diagnosis.

You beat me to it. I was going to say, we now know what’s wrong with the patient, but they’re dead.

Next engineering task - can we put this imaging technology in a machine that will be even MORE claustrophobia-inducing for the patient?

I mean, give even the most unshakeable a gut-wrenching episode that will power PTSD for years to come.

Not everybody gets that claustrophobic feeling.

I have had MRI’s and CAT Scans and even had my entire head locked motionless in a closed box while getting a MRI.

They even gave me a button I could push if I felt that way, so they would stop the procedure, but I was fine....................

What did the last person have that was inside this box?..................
