Nondestructive and microdestructive analytical methods are often essential
for the study and understanding of paintings. Recent development in portable
and noninvasive instrumentation has led to growing interest in the
applicability of techniques to the study of paintings. Further, as new
instrumentation becomes commercially available and more affordable,
conservators and scientists are able to use noninvasive techniques for
monitoring and analysis in new ways. A focus of the six papers in these proceedings is the interpretation of analytical results from portable instrumentation.
