N2  - The potential of non-destructive methods to examine waterlogged archeological finds is discussed focusing on wood. The possibilities of for instance magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and micro computer tomography (µCT) are yet unknown ? in particular MRI beyond its use in medical applications. Modern imaging techniques hold the potential to comprehensively scan, pre-analyze, investigate and finally understand cultural heritage objects. Among other ideas of application, an improved forecasting and monitoring system is considered as an innovative way in preserving fragile artifacts, especially those made of wood. The conference on ?MRI for Cultural Heritage Objects? highlighted the capability of integrating MRI and other imaging methods in cultural heritage research. Transdisciplinary approaches and project ideas were thus fostered in order to leverage an ?understanding of the entire object.?
