Paleoimaging: Field Applications for Cultural Remains and Artifacts

Multimodal imaging, or paleoimagining, indicates the natural evolution of anthropological and archeological research from single modality imaging studies to those that incorporate several modalities. This book evaluates the strengths and limitations of imaging applications in various nontraditional settings. In addition to methodological and procedural standards for the application of these modalities, the text provides standards for the interpretation of collected data. It includes over 200 radiographic, CT, MR, and endoscopic images; a wide range of in-depth case studies; as well as a CD highlighting field work. The authors also provide tables with comparative information.
