DESCRIPTION:Within the last twenty years Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) 
 has become established as a major 3D imaging tool in hospitals. Each exami
 nation is essentially a complicated Physics experiment involving careful m
 anipulation of the spins of the protons in hydrogen atoms of the subject. 
 The technique is excellent for anatomical imaging but also has many other 
 applications which are still being discovered by physicists working in the
  field. I will discuss the basic physics and applications\, and also a cur
 rent research project which involves combining MRI with simultaneous posit
 ron emission (PET) imaging.\n\nThis talk is free for members\, £2 for non
 -members.
