Bronchoscope to support safe, secure screenings with an even-surface shape and lack of inner corners for easier insertion and cleaning

This bronchoscope features a small CMOS sensor to realize a tip diameter of 4.1 mm and forceps diameter of 2.0 mm. Operability has been improved by the incorporation of a grip shape that fits the operator’s fingertips, and a newly mounted scope rotating function with a drop style dial indicator for easily turning the scope without shifting attention from the screen and pulling the scope out after safely returning it to the original position. In addition to these improvements, we used materials that are highly durable to the sterilant to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.
