This thesis examined x-rays on the world wide web in the public domain in order to see what cultural work they did in and beyond the clinic. It utilised theories of aesthetic empathy and empathic viewing to consider the relationship between viewer, x-ray image and the virtual environment. It considered the role of viewer as ‘flaneur’ and in terms of empathic viewing to reconsider the subject-object relationship.
