Olympus launches new flexible-tip videoscope

Olympus Corporation has announced the launch of the ENDOEYE FLEX 3D flexible-tip videoscope, compatible with the VISERA ELITE III surgical imaging platform to support more efficient, high-quality endoscopic surgery.

The new videoscope enables surgeons to access 4K, 3D and infrared (IR) imaging in a single scope, providing multiple observation modes to address a broad range of observation needs without changing scopes and to help surgeons perform procedures more efficiently says the company.

Endoscopic surgical procedures involve the insertion of a surgical endoscope and specialised instruments through small incisions in the abdomen, thorax, or other parts of the body. Because they place less physical stress on patients and can support faster recovery than open surgery, they have been widely adopted across a broad range of clinical specialties as a minimally invasive surgical approach.
