Living specimen induction chamber

A method of using an induction chamber, the induction chamber comprising a set of walls that define an interior cavity and comprising a door that is movable between an opened condition and a closed condition, the method comprising:

• supplying an anesthesia gas into the interior cavity;
• drawing anesthesia gas through a gas outlet disposed on one of the set of walls when the door is in the opened condition;
• and
• obstructing gas flow through the gas outlet when the door is in the closed condition.

An imaging system for capturing an image of a living specimen with a camera, the system comprising:

• an imaging box having a set of walls enclosing an interior cavity and a camera mount configured to position the camera to view the living specimen in the interior cavity while the living specimen is anesthetized;
• and
• an induction chamber comprising:
• a set of walls defining an interior cavity,
• a door that is movable between an opened condition that enables gaseous communication between the interior cavity and the environment exterior to the induction chamber through an opening, and a closed condition that seals the interior cavity from the environment exterior to the induction chamber,
• a gas inlet disposed in one of the set of walls and capable of providing anesthesia gas to the interior cavity,
• a gas outlet disposed in one of the set of walls and capable of drawing anesthesia gas from the interior cavity when the door is in the opened condition, and
• a gas outlet obstruction that varies flow of anesthesia gas from the interior cavity through the gas outlet based on the position of the door.
