Looking Inside Exhibit

An exhibit illustrating non-invasive medical imaging technology

The Dartmouth Medical School Department of Radiology and Montshire Museum exhibit designers have collaborated on an exhibition allowing visitors to learn about various non-invasive medical imaging technologies and what information they can reveal about the human body.

Still and moving images created using X-ray, MRI, PET, angiogram, CT-scan, four-dimensional ultrasound, and other technologies have been incorporated. The design process focused on exhibition techniques that encourage multi-generational conversations to enhance learning.

The exhibition opened in the spring of 2010 at the Montshire Museum.
