      No, but I got pics of my uterus while it was still inside of me. I wanted pics of it in the surgeon’s hand for size reference but that wasn’t allowed. 🙄

        If any of the laparoscopic instruments are in that shot, the diameter of the shaft of nearly all of them is 5mm, which can give a sense of scale.

        Some of them have 1cm interval markings on the shaft as well.

        …also literally every surgical supply pack (bunch of sterile supples contained in a backtable drape - opening and unfolding that is the start of your sterile field) has some kind of measuring device in it - usually just a disposable ruler, but lots of other random supplies have 1 cm intervals etched into them as well cuz why not I guess. They could have (and usually do) put one of those next to the specimen when taking a photo of it. …they might have simply forgotten that step lol.
