Endoscopy images – See the inside of the arum

From Kenneth Simpson, Professor of Medicine, College of Veterinary Medicine, who stopped by Friday and performed an endoscopy to view the inside of the inflorescence.

Here is the first batch of endoscopy photos from inside the corpse plant. The images were acquired with a prototype Karl Storz endoscope. (The vet school is a Beta test site.). Contact me by land line, pager or carrier pigeon if you need more plantoscopy. Cheers! Kenny.

Here’s a sample sequentially as the endoscope moved down the inflorescence. I’ll add explanations during the day Sunday as time allows. Check back.
