The aorta artery is one of the main vavles of your heart, not your belly 
button.  Faith G.

  I don't know that it is, but I accept that it is if that is what people who 
probably know say so.  The bit that said that was in a quote from an article.
  I don't know much about abdominal surgery, but they get some nasty surprises 
when they have to open up, I understand.  This is just from surgeon friends 
talking to me.  There are some good atlases of the body on line that would 
demonstrate where things go.  And how far beneath or under the belly button 
might come into the equation of what goes where and how far down the light 
penetrates.  But as for knowing - no, I am ignorant, I just listen and read, 
and mostly accept what sounds correct.

    Rowena, how do you know the aorta artery is behind the belly button? When 
they do laser surgery inside the abdomen, often they go through the belly 
button. Wouldn't that interfere with the artery? Thx. Jess
