Explanation:
Some 1,700 images were taken of Tut's mummy during the 15-minute CT scan aimed at answering many of the mysteries that shrouded his life and death - including his royal lineage, his exact age at the time of his death and the reason he died.
Tutankhamun is believed to have been the 12th ruler of ancient Egypt's 18th dynasty. He ascended to the throne at about the age of 8 and died around 1323 BC.
The mummy was last seen in 1968 when British archaeologist Ronald Harrison carried out x-rays on the teenage ruler. CT scanning is an advanced form of x-ray that produces three-dimensional images of the body.
