Abstract

John Mallard (Fig. 1) passed away on 25th February 2021. He made many important contributions to medical physics, particularly in imaging, and put together the team at the University of Aberdeen which built a whole-body MRI scanner in the late 1970s and used it for the world’s first clinical diagnostic body scan in August 1980 [1].
