When you need It ..DIY..
Yeh,
Many of us have thought "geez that million dollar piece of equipment is a little over priced.. I bet i could build one out of cheap off the shelf components".. Well I know I have.. RF Spectrum analysers made from dead tv's and vcrs, RF Sweep generators from the same equipment.. these with stability and accuracy enough for a hobbiest. How about Radio direction Finding (RDF) equipment? done.. even built a RADAR out of HAm 430Mhz radios..
Now read what this vietnamese Doctor did out of a desperate need..

In a poor country, what he did is special enough, he is working outside his vocation more credit worthy..
What has this to do with hardware?

It would never work in the USA. You'd have to cover yourself
against lawsuits, and that would jack the price back up to
about $30,000.
I came in to the world with nothing. I still have most of it.

Most of the cool hardware they use was developed by another doctor. Pretty cool the stuff they make.
Now we have standards etc..etc.... I hope that material like the plastic he's using isn't a bad kind, or someone’s lymph nodes might start to swell with cancer.

Well, for all I care about it, he can just take that endoscope and stick it in someone's arse...
I just hope he doesn't put it in someone's mouth afterwards...
Shows how a simple idea can actually turn out to become very useful... Congratulations to this doctor for this simple idea...
