Endoscope
An endoscope system lets clinicians see inside the body through a scope connected to a camera, light source and monitor. It is used in gastroenterology, surgery, urology, gynaecology, ENT and respiratory medicine for diagnosis and minimally invasive procedures.
Common types
- Flexible video endoscope: a chip at the tip, used for GI, bronchial and urology work.
- Rigid endoscope: a rod lens telescope used with a camera head in surgery.
- 4K camera system: higher resolution imaging for surgical endoscopy.
- 3D endoscopy system: stereo imaging for depth perception in surgery.
- Fluorescence imaging system: shows ICG dye for blood flow and tissue imaging.

Documents to ask for
Buyers ask for CE marking under the EU MDR or US FDA clearance, destination country registration, ISO 13485 for the maker and IEC 60601-1 with IEC 60601-2-18 test reports. Validated reprocessing instructions for each scope are also requested.
Certificates and registrations belong to the product and its manufacturer. We check them with you against the rules of your market before any order.
Can new scopes be used with our existing video processor?
Video scopes usually only work with processors from the same platform. Rigid telescopes are more interchangeable, but the coupler and light cable adapters must match.
