Software used to analyse medical brain images gives significantly different results if it’s run on a Apple Mac or PC, according to new research. The findings by a team of German researchers has raised concerns about potential problems with software analysis.

Well, since it's different on different versions of the Mac OS, let alone between Windows and Mac O/S, we do seem to have a long finger pointing at the software. No problem - medical "science" always behaves as though what they're doing is always correct, and when everything changes, they still behave that way. And besides . . . whatever happens to the patient, they still charge the same fees.

If it wasn't a gin, it doesn't count. :-D

OK, it wasn't a glass, it was a bottle. It was 35C with about 200% humidity so it was a full bottle of chilled Aussie white. When I say "full" I mean that purely as a historical state of the bottle. the dFull / dT was a very negative number.
