Fruits and Vegetables Through an MRI Scanner...Incredible!

...Andy Ellison of Boston University Medical School has been throwing the entire produce aisle inside a Philips 3 Tesla MRI, revealing the otherworldly realms that dwell inside common foods. Here's but a small sampling of his many see-through delicacies, immortalized as GIFs...

Amazing new perspective of produce! I can think of thousands of other things id like to see in the same way!
Ie- mobile phones, small engines, CPU's and other non-organic items.

Here is a couple of GIF's to share, the rest of them are held in the link above (LARGE IMAGE SIZES)

SUNFLOWER


CORN

Well that isn't something you see everyday.Pretty dam cool. Thanks for posting OP.

However, I wouldn't fancy eating any of the fruit or veg after watching it being zapped like that. No sireeee.

It's like the big bang was so intense it reverberated into the formation and emergence of life. I see this as, "the image of god"

I like

Broccoli




Tomato

the broccoli one reminds of what i imagine synapses firing would look like

Brocolie reminds me of fractals.

Very interesting thread. And they seem so surreal. The broccoli one seems the most non material out of all of them.

Very cool. It's like veggie fireworks, especially the broccoli and tomato!

We are all just playing out our roles from the Big Bang, sunflower, corn, tree, human being.

Broccoli reminds me of being punched in the eye after too many mushrooms (on toast - for breakfast, yunno)

thanks for sharing, utterly cosmic

Very interesting, and amazing to see. Thank you for sharing.

The corn looks sort of like an accordion Broccoli looks like fireworks too.

Isn't most fruit and veg irradiated anyway? Yum Yum lol

As for the scans... Pretty damn cool! Wouldn't it be fun to play with this kind of tech? lol

Hmmmmm What else could go in there???...

i think my favorite is the cucumber actually
i like the way the seeds seem to oscillate on and off

Very cool. My sis works in the MRI department of a neuro-ward so I'll post the link on. I'm still a little scared of brain scanners (esp. with the coming improvements in resolution and timing)...

Tribes of the Amazon have stated that plants have spirits that dwell within them (Devas). When ask how they learned to use jungle plants, they said "the plants teach us how to use them properly". The spirits inside the plant actually teaches them how to prepare and use them. I find this totally incredible.

i just thought how interesting it would be to see how living veggies and plants would look under an MRI scanner..

could we see them thinking?

The tomato reminds me of a brain with encepalopathy.

Hey guys just wanna chime in. I'm in the MRI business. MRI procedures don't zap you like X-ray machines. No radiation, just super strong magnets aligning atoms a certain way.
