  • Welcome!

    Your team has been tasked to solve the mystery of the missing Radiologist! 

    Dr. Pickalock, a famous and esteemed radiology researcher, has been missing for two days. She was last seen by her lab assistant in the laboratory working on some exciting new radiology developments to help in the diagnosis of patients. 

    Ordinarily, she would be in her lab or at home. Two days ago, her lab assistant went to bring Dr. Pickalock her phone which she left in the faculty lounge (Dr. Pickalock is somewhat absentminded) but did not see her. Concerned, he looked around the institution for her but to no avail. The lab assistant also checked her house with an extra key but the house was empty. Dr. Pickalock has disappeared with no way to contact her!

    Your task is to search her laboratory facility to find clues to her whereabouts.  Good luck! 

     

  • Image-220

  • Looking around Dr. Pickalock's lab, there are no visible clues but the lab assistant provided some information on her favorite places at the institution.  Now where to begin? 

  • Lightbox
  • Image-11
  • Test Tubes
  • Image-10

  • You arrive in the library and start looking around. Now what would Dr. Pickalock be doing in the library? You notice a beat-up old locked file cabinet with a file folder tucked behind.  

          

    The file folder contains several images and a note the reads:  "My experiments are so important but also dangerous.  I safeguarded everything under lock and key.  I’ve been working too long with too much caffeine and not enough food.  Goodness, gracious - now I’ve forgotten the code to getting into the file cabinet.  Fortunately, I’ve provided myself with some hints but only if I can remember how to solve the puzzles!  I’ve got to break the code!  I do remember that P=16."

    A _ _ ☐ _di _ _ _ _s

    _ pi_ _ _ _ _ ☐ s

    H _ _ _ es _ _e   k ☐ d _ _y

    S_ _ _ _ r ☐l   h_ _ _ _ _ _ a

    _ pi ☐ _ ra_   _em_ _ _m_ 

  • The diagnosis are:

    Appendicitis

    Epiglottis

    Horseshoe kidney

    Subdural hematoma

    Epidural hematoma

  • AppEndicitis
    EpiglottIs
    Horseshoe kIdney
    SubdurAl hematoma
    EpiDural hematoma

    Using the “P=16” (A=1, B=2, etc.) alphanumeric decoding method, the players will solve the clue. e=5 i=9 a=1 d=4

     

    The asnwer is: 59914

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-35

  • Correct, outstanding!

  • You open the file cabinet and find an index card, a note and another smaller locked box. There is some sort of writing on the index card. You read on the note: "Once again I have confounded myself. I know I have the clues to figure this out but I just can't remember what they are. I need to get into this other locked box because it contains a piece of the final answer."

  • Image-28

  • Use the information on the dose limits and radiation poisoning posters and be careful with your math!

  • Dose equivalent limits …, All Others = 500
    Fetal Total Dose Limit = 5
    Permanent Epilation Dose = 7
    Dermal atrophy phase 1 = 10
    Annual education exposure = 1


    (500 x 5) - (7 x 10) + 1


    2500 – 70 + 1 = 2431

     

    The answer is 2431

  • Correct, you're doing great!

  • You have opened the lock box and found a notebook with information scrawled inside.

  • Image-83

  • Level?  What does that mean? It seems like something important that we need to remember.  

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-40

  • Arriving in the reading room, you see several workstations with large glowing monitors.  On the walls around the room are several posters and pictures.  On one of the workstation chairs is a large shipping envelope with Dr. Pickalock's name and address.  On a nearby countertop is a locked box with a weird lock. 

    The lock on this box is a 5-digit alphabetic lock, not numeric.  What is it with all of the secrecy? Upon opening the envelope, you discover a series of radiographs. Some of them have arrows.  Hmm ...

  • Image-87

  • Use the names of the bones: Cuboid, Occipital, Pisiform, Radius, Ulna to solve the puzzle.

  • Cuboid

    Radius

    Occipital

    Ulna

    Pisiform

    The answer is CROUP

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-52

  • Correct, nice work!

  • You discovered that the alphabetic lock opened to the code CROUP.  Inside the box is a blacklight flashlight, a note card and more images. Blacklight!? That could show us a hidden clue! 

  • Image-86
  • Image-158

  • Try Double Bubble, Birds Beak, Bamboo Spine, Steeple Sign

  • Correct diagnosis alternate names:

    C (freebie provided in puzzle)

    DoUble Bubble

    BiRds Beak

    Bamboo SpIne

    SteeplE Sign

     

    The answer is CURIE.

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-65

  • After shining the flashlight on the picture of Madame Curie, you reveal an unusual code on the picture.

  • Image-88

  • Use the Morse Code chart and reveal the letters from top to bottom.

  • The answer is IMAGING.

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-59

  • Correct, good job!!

    The answer was IMAGING.

  • Imaging? What does that mean? It seems like something important that we need to remember.

  • This clinic is a mess! 

    Looking around you see a test tube rack, test tubes strewn around and a page torn out of some kind of textbook. There are words that feel familiar and letters on the tubes. Seems like it is important but what does it mean?

  • Look carefully at the textbook page to put the test tubes in the correct order.

  • After putting the test tubes in the order of the hand bone chart, the letters will spell out basement.

    Capitate B
    Hamate A
    Triquetral S
     Lunate E
     Trapezium M 
     Trapezoid E
     Navicular N
     Psiform T 

    The asnwer is BASEMENT.

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-74

  • Correct, quick thinking!

    The clue was BASEMENT

  • Basement? What does that mean? It seems like something important that we need to remember.

  • Sitting on the corner desk is a laptop. It may contain some needed information but what is the password?  Dr. Pickalock, like many of us, has a tough time remembering that type of information so the password is probably one word.  Searching around the laptop you find a bunch of notes attached to the wall. 

  • Image-92

  • Figure the math then use the periodic table for the word scramble.

  • 66 = Dy

    7 = N

    95 = Am

    53 = I

    52 = Te

    The answer is DyNAmITe

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-96

  • Correct, great intuition!

  • You have access to the laptop and found some files.

  • Image-106

  • Watch the videos carefully and spell the word that means a place, building, or receptacle where things are or may be stored.

  • Each video has some hidden letters that speall a word.

    The answer is REPOSITORY.

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-110

  • Correct, that's right!

    The clue is REPOSITORY

  • Repository? What does that mean? It seems like something important that we need to remember.

  • Where is Dr. Pickalock?

  • Image-172

  • Have you completed the puzzles in all four rooms?

  • Where is Dr. Pickalock?

  • Image-124

  • Use the four main clues: IMAGING, LEVEL, BASEMENT, REPOSITORY

  • The answer is BASEMENT LEVEL IMAGING REPOSITORY.

  • Incorrect, try again.

  • Image-118

  • Congratulations! You have found Dr. Pickalock

  • Dr. Pickalock is working so intently on some imaging exams that, at first, she does not hear you enter. Eventually she turns around, smiles and asks "What's all of the fuss?"

    You immediately call the the lab assistant who is extremely relieved and overjoyed her mentor has been found.

    Thanks for all of your hard work and diligence.
