With the help of cutting-edge science, the criminal justice and counterintelligence communities have declared a new war on deception. In this program, recent advances in lie detection technology are put to the test. Viewers will encounter alternatives to polygraph testing currently in development in the U.S. and Australia-such as thermal imaging of facial blood flow and MRI scanning that analyzes memory, inhibition, and emotion centers in the brain. Prominent experts-including Dr. Andrew Ryan of the U.S. Department of Defense Polygraph Institute and Dr. Mark George, Director of the Center for Advanced Imaging Research at the University of South Carolina-share their knowledge in the program.
