Laparoscope Images

Well, I told you that I'd put up images if I could get her consent, so here they are. Instead of trying to explain them all here I just put captions at the bottom of each image. If you have any questions leave 'em in a comment and we'll try to answer them the best we can.

This is the left ovary. It is significantly larger than the right ovary due a cyst that was previously thought to be a "normal functional" cyst.
