Olympus Presents New Era of Diagnostic Endoscopy with Endocyto at Arab Health 2020

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 29 Jan 2020
Olympus Medical Systems (Tokyo, Japan) introduced the new Endocyto colonoscope and gastroscope at Arab Health 2020, the largest healthcare exhibition in the Middle East.

As a manufacturer of optical and digital precision technology, Olympus provides solutions for state-of-the-art medical systems, digital cameras and scientific solutions. More...
The Olympus Medical Systems Division offers a variety of products and system solutions for the healthcare sector. At this year’s Arab Health, Olympus introduced the new Endocy featuring ultra-high magnification with up to 520x magnification ratio that enables observation at the microscopic level and helps improve diagnostic accuracy. Endocyto is equipped with a manual zoom mechanism resembling a conventional magnifying scope. With just a single endoscope, switching from normal view to magnifying observation and Endocyto observation is possible.

Olympus offers the Endocyto Gastroscope GIF-H290EC which incorporates a broad range of observation modalities, including magnifying NBI and 520x magnifying Endocyto observation for lesion assessment. Combined with a slim diameter of 9.7 mm, this versatile endoscope can be used in all different diagnostic gastroscopies from routine examinations to cutting-edge diagnosis.

Olympus’ Endocyto Colonoscope CF-H290ECI combines cutting-edge observation with proven insertion technologies to support patient-friendly high-quality colonoscopy. The magnified NBI and 520x magnifying Endocy observation support precise diagnosis of colorectal lesions to streamline therapeutic intervention. High force transmission and variable stiffness facilitate smooth maneuverability in this 12.8 mm slim-caliber colonoscope.

Endocyto can be connected to the EVIS LUCERA ELITE system. The one-touch connector minimizes the effort required for setup prior to and in between cases and eliminates the need for a water-resistant cap and the associated risk of an expensive repair due to accidental immersion.
