=Thorax= (explanations forthcoming)


 * Coronary artery bypass - sutures can be visible on the heart surface, also missing internal thoracic arteries are a clue
 * Chemotherapy ports (company website)
 * Pacemaker - the lead wires can be traced into right atrium by way of the subclavian vein
 * Defibrillator - the one we found would make a beeping noise every day at 4PM
 * Athelia - a congenital absence of nipples
 * Breast implants - a group discovered the woman had bilateral silicone implants
 * Sternotomy - the sternum has silver wire holding it closed after a midline cut was made to gain access to the mediastinum
