"All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them." Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) How can Raymond Damadian be bypassed for an award on MRI? Dr. Damadian has already been credited with the discovery of MRI! In 2004 he received the Benjamin Franklin Medal and Bower Award. In 1988 he received the National Medal of Technology from President Reagan for the MRI. In 2001 he became a Lemelson-MIT Lifetime Achievement Award Winner for the MRI. In 1987 he was inducted in the National Inventor's Hall of Fame as the Inventor of the MRI. In 1997 the patent based on his discovery of the MRI was affirmed by the United States Supreme Court.
