Need perspective on cardiac endoscopy

I recently ran across the University of Mn visual heart lab website, and see that they are using cameras to take videos of the inside of the heart.  Just wondering about the state of the technology. Does anyone know if this is something in common use these days? Anyone know where to find out more about it? Seems like this would be a great way to guide testing from inside the heart.

Have you posted this and your other recent question on the Heart Disease Community?  That community gets more inputs from doctors, which may be the only way of getting lead on your rather technical (to my simple mind) questions.

Yes I agree.  While I advocate using your head to pursue answers,  there is a point of diminishing return, especially when the subject matter involves a long learning curve, and emotions are high. This goes for ones own situation,  as well as when helping others.  The HR community it seems could use some balance, but on either end of the scale, in my mind the message should be the same.  i.e. Stick with it.
