Winner of Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge makes boogers look almost good enough to eat

boogers that look good enough to eat.jpg

Alright. It's not actually boogers you're looking at. But it is a computed tomography (CT) view up the nose of a 33-year-old Chinese woman being examined for thyroid disease. The image was created by Kai-hung Fung of Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital, who is one of two, first place winners in the photograph category of the National Science Foundation's Science & Engineering Visualization Challenge.

Fung is not the only winner who has created yummy results. This is just another reminder that science is not only fun, but tasty.
