Original MRI Scanner
Some History
This watercolour was first drawn from the actual scanner in the Suttie Gallery at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary (ARI). The considerable detailing was required to illustrate the amount of technical work in its conception. Original colours were used to bring realism to the final painting.
MRI is a technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes of the body.
The magnet is the largest and most expensive component of the scanner, and the remainder of the scanner is built around it that was invented by a team of researchers at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary under the leadership initially of Professor John Mallard.

Samuel –
This is such an unusual subject for a painting! Seeing an MRI scanner rendered in watercolour makes it feel less clinical and more approachable. It even brings out the gentle curves of the machine.
