 Other Interests

Other medical interests include study of carbon dioxide angiography, efficacy of echogenicity enhancing treatments of biopsy and venous access needles, and the application of medical imaging technology to nautical archeology challenges.  Of the latter, a sideline relating to a lifelong interest in sailing and nautical archeology dealt, so far, with applications of CT, micro CT, and other medical advances to archeological specimens.  This has ranged from reconstructing the image of a sword completely dissolved within a concretion from the Caribbean (see pictures below), dating wood samples from shipwrecks by dendrochronological methods, to CT and 3-dimensional workstation evaluation of other artifacts.
