Imaging of an unknown and undated mummy from the Archaeological museum in Zagreb, Croatia

The purpose of the study was to establish whether the mummified remains at the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb, Croatia were human, without having to unwrap and destroy the mummy. If the mummy was human, it was necessary to determine the sex, stature and age at the time of death, to find fractures or pathologic lesions, to see how were the remains embalmed and whether any artifacts were preserved. It was also important to assess the role of multidetector CT (MDCT) for the examination of Egyptian mummies. We studied an unknown and undated mummy from the Archeological Museum in Zagreb using plain X-ray films and MDCT. Radiographs of the skull, neck, thorax, abdomen, pelvis, both thighs and calves were obtained from both frontal and lateral views. 1mm thin axial slices were obtained with MDCT unit, through a single volumetric acquisition of the whole body, combined with sagittal and coronal reformatting and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction. The features of the body suggested that remains were human, most probably female in which growth had been completed. Degenerative processes in bones and a healed fracture of radius were found. Interruption of ethmoid cells was seen, which occurred while brain was being removed through nasal cavity. The utilization of resins in the mummification procedure is very probable. All internal organs were removed. Post mortem manipulation and unconventional artifacts were evident. The imaging techniques provided important paleopathologic and historical information that could not have been obtained through only X-ray. The superimposition that occurs in plain films obscures important details. We conclude that MDCT remains the imaging modality of choice for the examination of Egyptian mummies.
