Looking Inside Exhibit

An exhibit illustrating non-invasive medical imaging technology

The Dartmouth Medical School Department of Radiology and Montshire Museum exhibit designers are collaborating 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 will be incorporated. The design process will focus on exhibition techniques that encourage multi-generational conversations to enhance learning.

Following its exhibition in the spring of 2008 at the Montshire Museum, Looking Inside will travel to several outreach sites in rural Vermont and New Hampshire.
