These X-rays of zoo animals are extraordinarily creepy

sudshr47 October 18, 2018

There’s always something slightly sinister and ghostly about X-ray images, showing the white bones and dark shadows within us.

But this set of animal X-rays from the Oregon Zoo in Portland are taking ghostly to a new level.

The Oregon Zoo posted a Twitter thread of X-ray images taken at health check-ups at the zoo’s veterinarian. It’s pretty fascinating to see the insides of some of the zoo’s inhabitants.

The first 3D, full-color X-rays will weird you out

sudshr47 July 13, 2018

Classic black and white x-rays, move down the bench.

New Zealand company MARS Bioimaging has developed the world’s first full-color, 3D X-rays, and they’re so real it’s rather disturbing.

Developed over a decade by father and son scientists Phil and Anthony Butler in collaboration with the Universities of Canterbury and Otago, the MARS system is a new medical scanner using technology developed at CERN. And it could be more accurate than the typical scans you get a doctor’s office these days.

The MARS scanner uses a family of chips called Medipix, originally developed to track particles at the Large Hadron Collider. Medipix works like your camera — when the electronic shutter is open, each individual particle is detected and counted, creating high-res, accurate, noise-free images. Read more…

New technique brings secrets out of old daguerreotypes

sudshr47 June 25, 2018

Daguerreotypes – photos made with a process that used mercury vapors on an iodine-sensitized silvered plate – break down quite easily. The result is a fogged plate that that, more often that not, is completely ruined by time and mistreatment. However researchers at Western University have created a system that uses synchrotrons and “rapid-scanning micro-X-ray […]

I visited a teeth-straightening startup and found out I needed a root canal

sudshr47 May 7, 2018 Startups

Going to the dentist can be anxiety-inducing. Unfortunately, it was no different for me last week when I went to discuss Uniform Teeth’s recent $4 million seed funding round from Lerer Hippeau, Refactor Capital, Founder’s Fund and Slow Ventures. Uniform Teeth is a clear teeth aligner startup that competes with the likes of Invisalign and […]
