1. A multi-organ imaging system with a single, multi-examination illumination unit, the multi-organ imaging system comprising:
a camera body comprising a first end, a second end, and a cavity defined between the first end and the second end, wherein a camera unit is housed within the cavity of the camera body, wherein the camera unit is configured for imaging a plurality of organs, wherein the camera unit stores a plurality of imaging parameters that are invoked at activation of the multi-organ imaging system, and wherein the imaging parameters comprise a predefined red, green, and blue (RGB) gamma value, front light illumination, front light compensation, daylight color balance, auto white balance, fixed white balance, auto exposure activation, and optional image sharpening;
a camera lens operably coupled to the camera unit, wherein the camera lens has a fixed focal length and an iris for examination and the imaging of the plurality of organs using the camera unit;
a stationary, multi-examination illumination unit integrated to the camera body, proximal to the camera lens, wherein the stationary, multi-examination illumination unit comprises a plurality of illuminators arranged in a geometrical configuration thereon;
an attachment holder attached to the first end of the camera body, in coaxial communication with the stationary, multi-examination illumination unit positioned in front of the attachment holder, wherein the attachment holder coaxially accommodates an organ examination attachment for examination of the plurality of organs.
