In February 2009, the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art (OCCCA) and Mission Hospital will debut The Art of Imaging, a unique exhibit that explores medical imaging through contemporary art. Combining both worlds of science and art, the images used in the artwork are captured by the same imaging equipment that save lives every day.
Images from Mission Hospital’s advanced technology – including 3-and 4-D ultrasound, mammography, interventional and digital radiology, computerized tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and conventional X-rays – serve as the basis of creation as OCCCA artists mold the images to their own artistic expression.
