Join us for a biographical lecture about Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen (1845-1923) and Sir Godfrey Newbold Hounsfield (1919-2004), a German physicist and an English electrical engineer who revolutionized the practice of medicine with x-rays and x-ray computed tomography (aka CT scanning). The speaker is Pittsburgh's pre-eminent historian of radiology, retired radiologist Richard H. Daffner. A brief business meeting to vote on a slate of officers will precede the evening's lecture.
