An image enhanced endoscopy platform captures brighter and sharper images by utilizing leading-edge CMOS chip-in-the-tip technology. The device features a one-step connector, contact-free technology and is available as a complete video imaging system with blue light imaging (BLI) and linked color imaging (LCI) light observation modes.
The redesigned 700 series endoscope from Fujifilm Medical Systems U.S.A. Inc. redefines excellence by emphasizing usability and imaging capabilities. CMOS chip-in-the-tip technology enables smooth high-resolution video capture and is less susceptible to noise.
Usability is streamlined with a one-step connector eliminating the need for dedicated video connections. A wireless power supply has also been integrated into the design, which complements higher data transmission rates while reducing the potential for incidental damages.
The layout and size of the control grip has also been redesigned. The G7 grip features an ergonomic design with angulation knobs positioned in such a manner that it increases accessibility to the grip.
The complete imaging system also features BLI and LCI light observation modes. BLI is a high-intensity contrast imaging technique where shorter wavelengths are concentrated in order to improve contrast and help visualize subtle irregularities. LCI, on the other hand, is used to differentiate pigments in the red spectrum more effectively than is possible with white light imaging.
The ELUXEO 7000 Video Imaging System is to be demonstrated at the American College of Gastroenterology’s (ACG) annual meeting in Philadelphia, which is being held Oct. 7 to 9, 2018.
Reads just like an advertising blurb. Decent information, but I expect comparisons showing why this is better than existing, or other information to set it apart from other endoscopes.
