CD with X-rays and MRIS

[IMANUT46]

Can medical Mri's and xray's be read by a PC CD drive.?

Depends on how the images are saved. If they require special software to read, then you need that software. If they're just jpg files or some other image file that the PC can read, then they should be visible.

Oftentimes, a CD-ROM of images given to a patient will include reader software, so pop it in and see.

Usually yes. The image viewing software has been available the last few times enabling me to open all of my mri scan pics.

Thanks. Now all I have to do is get my wife to try it. SHE'S A REALLY BIG TECHNOPHOBE. (The PC she's using is my old laptop that because of physical problems, I can't use anymore. I get lots of resistance when I try to get her to do something different. After 33 years of marriage, I still love her.
