Paleoradiology is a specialized field that combines principles of paleontology and radiology to study ancient biological specimens, particularly fossils. It utilizes advanced imaging techniques such as X-rays, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to non-destructively examine the internal structures of fossils. This method allows researchers to gain insights into the morphology, development, and pathologies of extinct organisms without damaging the specimens.
