Unveiling the Secrets of a Mummified Boy: Exploring Ancient Life through CG Angiography

The video discusses the study of a mummified boy from around 200 AD using computer imaging and forensic science. Researchers, including Dan Malpass, aim to uncover insights into the child's life and death. The technology employed is CG angiography, which allows for non-intrusive, 3D scanning of the specimen. This method, known as helical scanning, involves a spinning X-ray tube to create a volumetric digital image. Widely used in hospitals, this technology may soon provide answers to ancient questions.
