Oldendorf, 2 a fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and the first neurologist elected to the National Academy of Sciences. 3 As a physician who performed pneumoencephalograms and carotid puncture angiography, Oldendorf searched for a more direct and humane way to image the brain. He was awarded the first patent for CT and produced the first known prototype apparatus in 1961, 4 creating an image of an aluminum nail (“the tumor”) surrounded by iron nails . . .
