Excerpted from the website:
- We worked with The Herchel Smith Laboratory for Medicinal Chemistry based at Addenbrookes Hospital in Cambridge, UK. Prof. Laurie Hall, the group's head, has specialized in micro-MRI of joints to track action of drugs on the articular surfaces of bones. His work is used particularly in the development of drugs to combat arthritis and rheumatism. Until our approach to him, however, Prof. Hall's work had not been used as the basis of 3D imagery for medical education. The Herchel Smith Laboratory build their own scanners and the magnetic coils into which subjects are placed for scanning. It was decided that the best way to achieve optimum resolution was to fix a hand and arm inside a precise jig which would sit neatly inside the coil.
