Abstract

In the introduction editorial of the special issue of Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal dedicated to Paleoradiology in 2004 Chhem defined Paleoradiology as the study of bioarcheological materials using modern imaging methods, such as x-ray radiography, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and micro-CT. I would like to add that it is the study of all archeological materials and not just bio-archeological. Paleoradiology got its name in 1987, when Notman published his famous study of sailors frozen during Franklin’s Arctic expedition.
