Sir Peter Mansfield @Cleoriff

I have just Googled 'MRI Scanner Inventors' & it is he who has recently passed away ... he is described as a pioneer of MRI

Ah yes....slighly crossed wires here Jane and you are correct (as am I.) Lol..

Physicist Sir Peter led a team which experimented with strong magnetic fields to “see” the organs inside a body in the 1970s.

The new technique gave surgeons the ability to see the body’s internal organs without potentially harmful X-rays by utilising strong magnetic fields and radio waves....so he pioneered and developed MRI scanning...

However the guy who actually 'invented the MRI scanner'  was the one I mentioned.Raymond Damadian

I didn't know Sir Peter had died so thanks for posting that. A very well respected man in this field of work...

Anyways...packing up and closing down. Luckily the sun isn't shining here today so I don't feel quite as bad...

I think I will have some excess baggage to pay as well (always a problem when you aren't in your own apartment) . Everything you bring you have to take back..including some bits and bobs I got for family birthdays

Ah well....:smileywink:
