ExiledInIllinois Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) Maybe that was the problem! From what I saw on NBC News, she was out. Sorry to sidetrack a serious and sad thread... But Holy Crapola Batman! I had to look up the history of endoscopy. Imagine being a person back in 1806 and we think we have it bad! Source: Wiki "History The first endoscope was developed in 1806 by Philipp Bozzini in Mainz with his introduction of a "Lichtleiter" (light conductor) "for the examinations of the canals and cavities of the human body". However, the Vienna Medical Society disapproved of such curiosity. The use of electric light was a major step in the improvement of endoscopy. The first such lights were external. Later, smaller bulbs became available making internal light possible, for instance in a hysteroscope by Charles David in 1908. Hans Christian Jacobaeus has been given credit for early endoscopic explorations of the abdomen and the thorax with laparoscopy (1912) and thoracoscopy (1910). Laparoscopy was used in the diagnosis of liver and gallbladder disease by Heinz Kalk in the 1930s. Hope reported in 1937 on the use of laparoscopy to diagnose ectopic pregnancy. In 1944, Raoul Palmer placed his patients in the Trendelenburg position after gaseous distention of the" abdomen and thus was able to reliably perform gynecologic laparoscopy Edited September 6, 2014 by ExiledInIllinois
bbb Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Is he related to Malcolm Glazer, who was born in Rochester? Haven't seen it reported anywhere, but it seems too coincidental for 2 wealthy guys from Rochester who have the same last name not being related. This one actually was born and raised in Buffalo, though.
