ICG/NIR fluorescence imaging has become one of the most valuable technologies in the field of minimally invasive surgery for applications including intraoperative assessment of visceral perfusion (e.g., enteroanastomosis), visualization of biliary structures in fluorescence cholangiography, or lymph node mapping in oncological procedures (e.g. visualization of the sentinel lymph nodes in case of lymphadenectomy).

Functional, precise, and efficient, these are the characteristics of the “SHARK” resectoscope. The ergonomically designed and perfectly coordinated overall system impresses with intuitive handling, control and safety. These exceptional criteria have been recognised by the conferral of an iF product design award in 2013.

Intuition as operating principle – joining and separating of the system elements occurs uniformly via snap-on couplings. This technology enables the user to conveniently fit the individual components together.

ERAGONmodular is setting benchmarks in versatility and quality. This modular generation of instruments was created to cover a broad range of applications. Surgeons can rely on precision, safety and intuitive handling. ERAGONmodular is the system for countless interdisciplinary potentials and your particular laparoscopic toolbox.

4K means a resolution of at least 3840 x 2160 pixels and therefore fourfold with respect to the previous HD standard. As a result, very small and fine structures can be clearly and unambiguously identified. The richness of detail leads to a virtually three-dimensional visual impression so that the spatial orientation and depth effect improves.

The optically fully-integrated rigid “TEXAS” Bronchoscope was developed in cooperation with Dr. Garrett Walsh*. This instrument is used for diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopy, for interventions such as biopsy, tumor resection, removal of foreign bodies, and insertion or removal of stents.

The key factor with these techniques is to ensure that the working channel of the bronchoscope is as large as possible. This enables various forceps and instruments to be easily introduced synchronously or alone.

Intubation has also been frequently problematic with the rigid bronchoscope tube. An integrated, optical view now makes introducing the bronchoscope significantly easier. The integrated endoscope is well protected with separate channels for telescope and instruments.

3 D-Endoscopy System in HD quality

Maximum endoscopic Full HD image quality with three-dimensional depth – this is the benchmark for ENDOCAM Epic 3DHD.

Human beings use their two eyes to gain orientation within a space. ENDOCAM Epic 3DHD also uses two eyes to generate an image of a space.

3DHD – maximum image quality

Up to now, users have had to decide between 3D and high-resolution HD. This entails a choice between the detailed image of a 3-chip camera head and the 3D image of smaller, weaker sensors. Both advantages are combined in the ENDOCAM Epic 3DHD: Two 3-chip HD sensors permit maximum 3D image quality in Full HD!

Natural spatial display through distortion-free endoscopes

The natural stereo 3D imaging of the ENDOCAM Epic 3DHD system already starts with the high-quality 3D endoscopes. The many years of expertise gained by Richard Wolf in 3D endoscopy and in the development of comparable endoscopes forms the platform for the new camera system. The two optical channels are free of distortion and display the space in correct geometrical configuration without any unnatural curvatures.

Connections and monitors

ENDOCAM Epic 3DHD has three HD SDI 3D pairs as outputs. These can be connected, e.g. to three professional 3D monitors, or viewed individually as 2D images. Naturally, users can use the controller to toggle quickly between the conventional 2D image and stereoscopic 3D image during operation.

Richard Wolf recommends professional 3D monitors in 32″ format with light 3D polarizer glasses as a 3D monitor in the operating room.
