Dr. Marc Ghysels is a 61-year-old Belgian radiologist who has acquired an international reputation for his skill in analyzing and authenticating sculptures and works of art thanks to his original use of medical CT scanners. In his private radiology practice in Brussels, he analyses antiquities from a wide range of cultures, whatever their age or material, as long as they are not made of metal and are small enough to pass through a medical CT scanner.His expertise is sought by art specialists across the globe to verify the techniques used by the artists, detect any damage or restoration, and expose the many tricks designed to deceive not only the discerning eye of the collector but also the more commonly used methods of scientific analysis. Art collectors, conservators, curators, art dealers, auction houses, and insurance companies regularly call on his skills.www.scantix.com
