In 2002, Dr. Maurizio Seracini, an art diagnostician alumnus of the University of California, San Diego and a native Florentine, was commissioned by the Uffizi to undertake a study of the paint surface to determine whether the painting could be restored without damaging it. Seracini, who heads Editech, a Florence-based company he founded in 1977 focused on the "diagnostics of cultural heritage", used high-resolution digital scans as well as thermographic, ultrasound, ultraviolet and infrared diagnostic techniques to study the painting in ultra-fine detail. He concluded that the painting could not be restored without damaging it and that Leonardo only did the underdrawing. Another artist (or artists) was responsible for all of the existing paintwork on top of the underdrawing. Seracini stated that "none of the paint we see on the "Adoration" today was put there by Leonardo." As a part of his diagnostic survey on the "Adoration of the Magi", Seracini completed more than 2,400 detailed infrared photographic records of the painting's elaborate underdrawing, and scientific analyses. The new images revealed by the diagnostic techniques used by Seracini were initially made public in 2002 in an interview with "New York Times" reporter Melinda Henneberger. In 2005, nearing the end of his investigation, Seracini gave another interview, this time to "Guardian" reporter John Hooper. Seracini finally published his results in 2006: M. Seracini, "Diagnostic Investigations on the "Adoration of the Magi" by Leonardo da Vinci" in "The Mind of Leonardo – The Universal Genius at Work", exhibit catalogue edited by P. Gauluzzi, Giunti Florence, 2006, pp. 94–101.
