Prognoses?
The whole concept of doing a scan on a snake, even one 50M years dead is just silly.
Grandmother showed me how to view interior sections by using a chopping hoe. And she managed to get about 200 sections from a 8" grass snake in 1967.
As I matured, I prefer the more holographic approach of 12 ga & #8 shot at point blank range. It gives more resolution at the cellular level.

I wonder if they put this snake fossil on a scale?
