I shall be eagerly anticipating results from other tests on the skull to learn more about this individual. This is a great example of medical imaging being used to learn about our past and inform the general public and an excellent case study for archaeology, heritage, forensics and the application of radiography.
The use of CT to analyse the skull provides a valuable opportunity to learn about the individual whilst creating a permanent record for future analysis and research.
