Unraveling Ancient Mysteries: High-Tech Imaging Reveals Secrets of Egyptian Child Mummy

The video explores the investigation into the cause of death of a young Egyptian child mummy, using advanced imaging techniques like CT and MRI. The mummy, housed at the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, was transported to Stanford for scanning. The images are processed using Silicon Graphics' 3D visualization technology, allowing researchers to explore the mummy internally without opening it. This marks a significant technological advancement in mummy studies, building on previous research, such as the virtual unwrapping of a 2800-year-old mummy from the British Museum.
