Imagine the smell Thanks to @Bigbonesdontjiggle's link: [...] Just a shits and giggles story I heard through a guy I used to work with. There was an ultrasound tech he'd met on one of his student placements, and at that hospital they actually had a bariatric ward for obese patients. A large patient from that ward needed an abdominal ultrasound scan. To anyone reading this not familiar with ultrasound, it's more or less the same deal as with X-ray: less fat = better images. Anyway, this patient came in and the sonographer was really struggling to get anywhere. He was really pushing the probe into the patient's abdomen to compress the fat and tissue underneath but the images were still fairly shoddy. The patient had quite lot of belly fat, like the kind that has a big fold underneath and sits like blanket on their legs. So in an effort to get better pictures the tech stuck his hand under the belly fat to lift it up so he could scan underneath. And from under the belly, a cookie fell out. The sonographer excused himself for 10 minutes because he couldn't keep a straight face.
