The FONAR technique that achieved the first chemical image of the live human being is described. Color and black-and-white video images of a cross-section through the chest at the level of the eighth thoracic vertebra were generated. The imaging showed the heart and mediastinum in the midline between the left and right lungs with the heart encroaching on the left lung space as it does at this level. Also seen was the descending aorta just left and anterior to the vertebral body.
文中描述了实现首张活人化学图像的FONAR技术。生成了第八胸椎水平胸部横断面的彩色和黑白视频图像。成像显示心脏和纵隔位于左右肺之间的中线位置，心脏在此水平如同实际情况那样侵占了左肺空间。还可见降主动脉位于椎体左前方。
