Corrected entry: Abby diagnosis a 'piece of metal in his spleen' when treating Susan's husband who has just collapsed. She puts the ultrasound machine beside his right hip when the spleen is located behind the last rib on the left. Also metal would not show up on ultrasound.
Corrected entry: None of the babies that are born in this episode have umbilical chords.
Correction: I think you'll find that Dr Weaver's baby has an umbilical chord as Neela asks her if she'd like to cut it.
Visible crew/equipment: When Dr. DeRaad asks Kerry if she knows Paul Sobriki she tells him to check the board, and as Kerry walks past the door we can see the reflection of a crouched crew member walking backwards, pulling a rolling microphone stand. (00:02:45)
Trivia: It is finally revealed here that Dr. Weaver uses the crutch because of congenital hip dysplasia.
Question: Does anybody know what the episode was called where that helicopter severed Romano's arm? I'm pretty sure it was season 8.
Answer: It was in "Chaos Theory" which is the first episode of season 9 (time code 00:13:55).
Correction: Actually, since ultrasound scans are based upon the principle that high frequency soundwaves are reflected, metal shows up very well on an ultrasound. It would appear as bright white since it is dense and would reflect soundwaves very efficiently. Also, they can still use the machine even in that position.
