Deep Space LIVE: The Third Dimension
September 21, 2017 / 7 PM

(Linz, September 19, 2017) A fascinating journey through the history of x-ray technology awaits visitors at the next Deep Space LIVE on Thursday, September 21st at 7 PM. Uwe Busch, director of Germany’s Röntgenmuseum, and Dr. Franz Fellner, head of the Department of Radiology at Kepler University Clinic, will span a broad arc through the history of medicine—from the discover of x-rays and the emergence of modern methods such as computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) all the way to the development of cinematic rendering, a 3-D visualization technique based on MRI and CT that produces photorealistic representations of the human body. Following this Deep Space LIVE presentation, visitors are cordially invited to take a tour of “The Third Dimension,” the new temporary exhibition at the Ars Electronica Center.
