Once they can *finally* get their hands on it, they may just cut ye 
olde ticker into small pieces, then slice it very thinly, put it on 
some of these: http://www.surgicalshop.com/micro_slides.html, and 
look at it under a microscope. Or they'll eat it as carpaccio with 
a good balsamico and virgin olive oil from Crete, but they don't 
often tell people that.
