JAMES ELLIOTT MSc, FHEA, PCIfA
RADIOGRAPHER / ARCHAEOLOGIST

Hello! I am a senior lecturer in diagnostic radiography at Canterbury Christ Church University (United Kingdom). This is my research website where I share my interests in paleoimaging - the use of imaging methods in archaeology.

I have a Bachelor of Science in both archaeology and diagnostic radiography, culminating in a Masters in Forensic Radiography. I am also registered as an archaeologist with the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists.

My main areas of experience includes nuclear medicine, x-ray, CT and fluoroscopy. I am British but I've adopted the American way of spelling paleoimaging, the alternative being palaeoimaging. I contribute to a range of academic journals and I'm on the international advisory board for Radiography.

I have a blog where I tell you what I've been up to, although I must admit I use Twitter (X) a lot more these days. Check out the Projects section of the website to view publications, photos, x-rays and videos related to paleoimaging. Listen to the podcast from Imagin' That or Archeotech to learn more about me and the use of X-rays in archaeology.
