Intro image

The intro endoscope image is difficult for readers with no knowledge of the subject to interpret. Where or what are the varices in this picture? Can someone add an arrow or circle to the image to indicate the varices, and/or add more descriptive words to help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.46.114.221 (talk) 18:20, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
