Silent video of 3-D images of a human brain and heart created using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in the early days of NMR being used to see into human bodies. When NMR is applied in a medical context such as this, it is called magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The data for these images was provide by Paul Lauterbur, while the actual imaging was done by the Medical Image Processing Group in the Computer Science Department at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Buffalo.
