heart and lung field

Ever wish you could share the feeling of standing over an open chest field, watching the heart beat, or perhaps relive the experience in the comfort of your own home? Okay, that latter part may be a stretch, but you should check out this movie anyway (WMV HD format), shot in oh-so-sweet high definition to capture all the little details.

    thanks — this is a nice little vid to put onscreen at the beginning of cardio lectures

    was this a lung case?

    Very good video quality. What kind of camera/rig was used to capture this?

    actually we did this whole thing on the spur of the moment, and the only camera we had access to was our storz hd laparoscope … so we just unscrewed the camera head and pointed it at the field. we recorded it using a sony xdcam deck at 25 mbps.
