• W2034942630 abstract "On October 12, 2003, the Nobel Committee on Physiology and Medicine awarded the Nobel Prize to Paul Lauterbur and Sir Peter Mansfield for MRI. Conspicuously absent from this list was Raymond Damadian. Because the rules allow three individuals to be named for a given prize, the omission of Dr. Damadian was clearly intentional. I believe there are two possible explanations for their omission of Dr. Damadian. The first (and probably less likely) reason is that the focus of this prize was more on imaging than magnetic resonance. Raymond Damadian's initial contribution was the demonstration of T1 prolongation in cancer, not MR imaging per se. Actually, had the Nobel Prize for MRI been awarded 10 years ago, it is doubtful that Sir Peter would have won it. At the time, his main contribution, echo planar imaging (EPI), was a largely experimental technique, because the strong, fast gradients needed to make it clinically useful were only then being beta-tested. Over the last 10 years, the value of EPI—particularly EPI diffusion imaging—has been aptly demonstrated in the setting of acute stroke. Because of EPI perfusion and diffusion imaging, it is likely that MR will replace CT over the next few years as the primary imaging modality used to triage acute stroke patients for thrombolysis. Thus, EPI could have an enormous impact on the management of stroke, which itself has enormous economic impact. This could be one reason that Dr. Mansfield won the award now. A more likely reason that Dr. Damadian did not win the award has to do with his less-than-subtle self-promoting activities over the past 20 years. Because I have known Raymond Damadian for 20 years and consider him a friend, I have always questioned why a brilliant scientist needed to resort to relatively provocative tactics to be appreciated. While I do not condone the self-promoting activities of Dr. Damadian either before or after the prize was announced, it is also difficult for me to understand how the Nobel Committee could not see beyond these idiosyncrasies and base their decision entirely on the science. There is no doubt (in my mind at least) that Dr. Damadian got the ball rolling with his discovery of T1 prolongation in cancer and his construction of the first working human MRI system. Unfortunately, the Nobel Committee apparently could not see the significance of these discoveries and chose to base their decision on politics and social decorum rather than science." @default.
