godfrey hounsfield developed the first CAT scanner while working with EMI and EMI is falously associated with the beatles as well..
Back in the 60's, the Beatles donated money to a scientist working at EMI Ltd., Godfrey Hounsfield, who with the money he got from them invented the CT scanner. On his speech after winning the Nobel Prize, he thanked the Beatles.
EMI Scan (developed by Electric & Musical Industries originally). EMI was the records company of the Beatles for a while.
