Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a disposable sheath for an endoscope device. The endoscope sheath includes an elongated conduit including a first end and a second end. The elongated conduit is configured with a plurality of hollow ports extending from a proximal portion to a distal portion of the elongated conduit. Further, the sheath includes a shield body member including a first flap member and a second flap member extending from the first end and the second end, respectively. The first flap member and the second flap member are operated between a closed position and an open position for encasing the endoscope device for performing an endoscopy. The sheath includes an endoscope cap adapted to releasably engage with a portion of the elongated conduit and the shield body member encompassing a distal end of the endoscope device.

A cleaning sheath for an endoscope includes an open ended sheath coupled to a fluid line via a hub. The sheath is configured to receive an endoscope within the interior of the sheath wherein both the sheath and the endoscope may be inserted into a trocar during use. The sheath is configured to direct a cleaning fluid onto the optics end of the endoscope to clear away any visual obstructions without requiring the removal of the endoscope from the trocar. The hub is configured to hold the endoscope in a desired position during use to allow a user to selectively adjust and fix the position of the optics end of the endoscope relative to the distal end of the sheath during use at a location extending beyond the distal end of the sheath, aligned with the distal end of the sheath, or withdrawn into the distal end of the sheath.

An intraoral measurement device includes: a device main body that holds a base end side of a prism by a housing, the housing accommodating an illumination member and an imaging member, a cover member that is attached to the device main body in a state of covering, with a space part interposed in between, a distal end side of the prism arranged to face a measurement target, in which a part arranged to face the measurement target is formed by a light transmission window; and a heat transfer member that extends from the device main body along a non-optical surface of the prism, and transfers heat of the device main body to the light transmission window through abutment of a protruding end provided to protrude from the prism against the light transmission window of the cover member.

A medical signal processing device includes: an acquisition unit is configured to acquire a first image signal acquired by emission of first light onto an object, and a second image signal acquired by emission of second light onto the object, the first light being in a wavelength band including visible light, and the second light exciting a fluorescent substance included in the object; a detection unit configured to detect each of a signal level of the visible light included in the first image signal and a signal level of fluorescence included in the second image signal; and a calculation unit configured to calculate a correction coefficient to correct the signal level of the fluorescence by using a result of the detection by the detection unit.

An optical fibre having a functionalised distal exploration end including a sheath, and a ferrule rigidly connected to the sheath at the distal exploration end, characterised in that the distal exploration end has a functionalised head which is removably attached on the ferrule. Also, a method of assembling the optical fibre.

The present invention provides a protective sheath, a hysteroscope equipped therewith, and a nephroscope equipped with the same, used to prevent contaminants from contaminating electrical connecting lines connected to the endoscope. The protective sheath includes an inner sheath (1) and an outer sheath (2), which are sleeved together, the outer sheath (2) has a cylindrical structure, the inner sheath (1) includes a straight cylindrical portion and a bell mouth portion, the bell mouth portion is located on an insertion end side of the inner sheath (1), a side wall of the bell mouth portion is provided with a plurality of grooves extending from the bell mouth portion to the straight cylindrical portion, and a plurality of elastic sheets (12) are formed at the insertion end of the inner sheath (1); a connecting portion cooperating with a self-locking quick connector (7) is formed on the inner wall of each elastic sheet (12); and a hollow cavity is disposed between the inner sheath (1) and the outer sheath (2), and a compressed waterproof jacket (3) is disposed in the hollow cavity, one end of the waterproof jacket (3) is fixedly sheathed on the inner sheath (1), and the other end of the waterproof jacket (3) can be pulled through a non-insertion end of the protective sheath. The protective sheath is lightweight, compact, and easy to operate. The protective sheath effectively protects the electrical connecting lines from being contaminated during use, thereby preventing short circuit, contamination and other situations, furthermore, the protective sheath is low in production cost and can be used as a disposable medical device.

An endoscope treatment tool that is insertable into a channel of an endoscope includes: an insertion unit having flexibility; and a treatment unit disposed on a distal end of the insertion unit and supported so as to be rotatable about a longitudinal axis of the insertion unit. The insertion unit includes a tubular exterior member configured to come into contact with the treatment unit on a distal end side of the insertion unit, the tubular exterior member configured to be moved in a direction of the longitudinal axis of the insertion unit, an operation member penetrating through an interior of the exterior member, the operation member configured to transmit rotation about the longitudinal axis to the treatment unit, and a wire penetrating through an interior of the insertion uni, the wire having a distal end fixed to the exterior member.

A system includes an endoscope defining a proximal end, a distal end and an elongated shaft extending between the proximal end and the distal end of the endoscope. A fluid collecting sheath defines a proximal end and a distal end. The fluid collecting sheath is configured for insertion into a vaginal opening. The fluid collecting sheath includes fluid collecting apertures defined at the distal end of the fluid collecting sheath. A fluid line is in fluid communication with the fluid collecting apertures. A channel is formed in the fluid collecting sheath. The channel extends between the proximal end and the distal end of the fluid collecting sheath. The channel defines an opening therein. The channel of the fluid collecting sheath is configured to operably engage the elongated shaft of the endoscope by passing the elongated shaft of the endoscope through the opening of the channel.
