In the article, Sayers (2004) argues that everythijng that man encounters will try to get the real picture of it using analogies. Since we have not seen God, man has tried different analogies to compare God so that he gets the real pictiure of Him. Although the Jews tried as amuch as possible to discourage this behaviour, man has never ceased to compare God and think of Him in terms of analogies. If man is to stop comparing God with analogies, it is a way of telling man not to think of God. From time to time, man has been ...

Since Wilhelm Röntgen discovered X-rays, biomedical imaging has made tremendous leaps and bounds. Diagnostic Radiology revolutionized the way disease was detected and altered the course of disease management. Nuclear Medicine promises to transform interventions and create pinpoint solutions to maladies that until this point would have required a broader stroke and caused harm to healthy tissues. A Master’s degree in Biomedical Imaging at University of California, San Francisco would enable me to explore this fascinating field and interact with excellent faculty and students, facilitating professional development and scientific advancement. My undergraduate education in Radiologic Sciences from Southern ...
