Together with researchers from the University of Zurich Siemens tried to answer the question: Can a new software for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems provide insight into the anatomy and disease characteristics of the human being, even for those parts of the human body which, even more so for a mummy (right picture), contain almost no water? Siemens is currently developing specific software for picking up the signal from dry tissue and converting it into sharp images. The ultra-short-echo-time-application (UTE) may allow visualization of even fine bone structures without X-rays in the future.
