# But the G-spot was found with ultrasound.
And conventional X-ray can't detect brain function, it was probably MRI or PET.

Out-pedanticked.

# dunno about you
but i tend to find MRIs in x-ray depts (or private harley street clinics)

# I've seen a couple of hospitals with seperate MRI departments.
And MRI doesn't use X-rays.

# I know it doesn't
my mother was a radiographer for 25+ years, i've two chemistry a-levels (i choose to count them as seperate awards even if AQA don't) and am doing physiotherapy at uni. I know the basic principles behind MRI.

but as MRI was invented after conventional x-ray and x-ray depts were the internal imaging departments for a good while most hospitals lumped them together.
most MRI operators used to be specialist rads too, not sure these days

# Fair enough.
I'm doing an MSc in Medical Physics, which mostly involved imaging techniques, apart from radiotherapy.
I'm not doing the MRI module though, as it sounds pretty dull.

# probably is
NMR was the most interesting compound analysis method we did at A-level. says something really

# I feel sorry for you.
I've done some reading on MRI, and want to stay well away from it.
Pretty pictures, though.

# it's not that bad
didn't do any of the converting results into images shit (which would've been dull) just the basics of it, and how to read NMR spectographs (which is more interesting than talking about inorganic compounds)

# Oh, that's probably not too bad.
I'd probably be doing the reconstruction algorithms, and about the magnetic field and all that crap.
