I would guess that the flash ring is inside the lens. There should be a long 
fiber optic probe that attaches to the lens and goes into an orifice. That 
trasmits the light from the flash up the probe, and the image down to the camera.

Dedicated microscopy camera?
I think it's more of a dedicated ~endoscopy~ camera.

I'd say it's basically a modified ME.  At least, that's the body that it
looks and feels closest to.
