Researchers Highlight Peruvian ‘Tridactyl’ Mummy Reported to Be Pregnant, With Metal Implants and Unusual Anatomy The host of Project Unity reports that a Peruvian university team working with UNICA has presented a tridactyl mummy, nicknamed Monserat, which they claim was pregnant at the time of death and contains multiple metallic implants. The presentation cites high‑resolution CT scans, tissue sampling, and metallurgical results, while acknowledging that comprehensive independent verification remains essential.

Peruvian team presents Monserat, a tridactyl mummy reported pregnant with metal implants—based on high-res CT, tissue and metallurgical analysis; researchers say independent verification is still required. #Tridactyl #Peru #Forensics #CTScans

Projected Lifetime Cancer Risks From Current Computed Tomography Imaging This risk model projects how many future cancers in the United States could result from annual computed tomography examinations.

⚠️ If current CT usage and radiation dosing continue, CT-related cancers could comprise up to 5% of all new U.S. cancer diagnoses each year.

AI-based image analysis detects early organ damage Early warning through AI image analysis: Long before kidney damage occurs as a result of some prostate cancer therapies, kidney volume is slightly reduced.

Lisa Steinhelfer and Friederike Jungmann found that certain #cancertherapies can cause early #kidneydamage, detectable via #AI-analyzed #CTscans. This allows timely treatment adjustments: go.tum.de/787388
