birth video in MRI imaging
sorry it's in german language.
the video is fascinating, quite some contortionists, our babies!
no idea how they got a woman to go through birth in a noisy mashine, though

Great images - but who on earth would volunteer to labour in an MRI scanner? Give that woman a nobel prize

Isn't that damaging your (their)health..?

Amazing!

The article mentions how it wasn't harmful and that as soon as the waters went they turned the MRI off to protect the baby's hearing.

i hope this kind of thing can be used to actually research how birth happens, and how birth injuries happen, and how they can be prevented. It's shocking how little hcps actually know about birth and women have suffered for it.

Good point oikopolis. Personally without being able to understand the german I just don't get ths at all...my first thought is this not computer simulated? Cos giving birth in an MRI machine can't be a good idea, not just cos of the machine but because you'd be so constricted and you'd be lying on a bed which is never a good idea if you can avoid it!
