Strange that one of the two people credited with "discovering" this technique which, at least initially, was applied specifically to MR images literally knows nothing about MRI, even some 4 years after the initial work was published.

@physicalKinetics I guess Prof. Tao(as a pure mathematician) wanted to explain the principle of CT but confused neutrons with photons, and confused MRI with CT. For MRI it seems that nothing has any relevance to high energy particles except the radio frequency waves.

correct me if i'm wrong but it sounds like he was describing neutron diffraction around 4.30, not mri...
