From Roentgen to Rembrandt, Hounsfield to Hollywood and Vesalius to
videogames, Imagining Imaging explores the deeply entwined
relationship between art (and visual-based culture) and radiology /
medical imaging. Including artworks from numerous historical eras
representing varied geographic locations and visual traditions,
alongside a diverse range of contemporary artists, Dr Jackson
argues that the foundations of medical image construction and
interpretation were laid down in artistic innovations dating back
hundreds and thousands of years. Since the discovery of X-rays,
artists and moviemakers have, in turn, drawn rich inspiration from
radiographic imagery and concepts, but the process of
cross-pollination between art and science has continued, with
creative endeavour continuing to mould medical imaging examinations
to this day. Blending a unique mix of art, science and medical
history, together with aspects of visual neurophysiology and
psychology, Imagining Imaging is essential reading for
radiologists, radiographers and artists alike. Peppered with
familiar TV and film references, personal insights into the
business of image interpretation, and delivered in an accessible
and humorous style, the book will also appeal to anyone who enjoys
looking at pictures. Key features: Engaging synthesis of art and
medical history, combined with anecdotes and experiences from a
working clinical radiologist Diverse range of visual reference
points including astronomy, botany and cartography, alongside
comprehensive discussion of medical imaging modalities including
plain radiography, ultrasound, CT and MRI 200 full colour
