So I'm at this conference with Casey and of course there's a big exhibit hall with vendors trying to sell their medical supplies and equipment, including ultrasound machines (Casey's specialty). So I'm walking up to one of the ultrasound booths, and I'm noticing this body on a bed next to the ultrasound machine. The body has on regular socks and athletic shorts (no shirt) and looks really life like. And then, on the next bed demonstrating a different ultrasound machine, is another body, also shirtless and wearing athletic pants and socks. And now I notice that these are not mannequins. These are real living men. Paid models (which means real living good-looking shirtless men). It's a bit unsettling to have these guys just laying there while doctors and salespeople talk business over them and scan over their insides, on display for everyone walking around the exhibit. Thankfully they didn't have a real women modeling the trans-vaginal ultrasound. Although they did have dummy model for sale for teaching hospitals to use with med students and residents.
