20220000354 · 2022-01-06 · ·

Described herein is a video laryngoscope designed for easy and safe operation comprising an apparatus body, a laryngoscope camera arm unit, and an associated laryngoscope blade releasably attached to the laryngoscope camera arm unit. The laryngoscope camera arm unit is angularly adjustable by use of a rotary linkage member connected to a distal end of the apparatus body. A communication unit is connected to a linkage device at a proximal end of the apparatus body. A light source and a video camera are located on the laryngoscope camera arm unit. The laryngoscope blade has at least two internal fluidic channels for delivering fluid to oral cavity regions of a patient and providing suction of bodily fluids from the patient.

20230380661 · 2023-11-30 ·

A portable endoscopic inspection system comprises an endoscope having a proximal end with a flanged eyepiece for observation and a distal end with a lens assembly for insertion into a region of interest. A light port transports incident light to the region of interest along an lighting pathway, and reflected light is transported along an imaging pathway from the lens assembly to the eyepiece. A wireless imaging unit comprises a light source which detachably couples to the light port for generating the incident light, and an imaging sensor for recording images of the reflected light from the eyepiece. The wireless imaging unit comprises a variable coupling system which mechanically couples the imaging sensor to the flanged eyepiece independent of the shape and/or size of the flange of the eyepiece.

Ultrasonic Capsule Endoscopy Device having Image-based Relative Motion Estimation

Improved localization of the capsule in acoustic capsule endoscopy is provided by using analysis of the frames of the acoustic images to deduce the relative motion of the capsule from frame to frame. This idea can be supplemented with any combination of: further localization methods; propulsion of the capsule via acoustic radiation reaction; bidirectional communication and system level feedback control; energy harvesting; photoacoustic (or x-ray acoustic) imaging; and adding therapy and/or sensor capabilities to the capsule.

MODULAR ENDOSCOPIC SYSTEM FOR VISUALIZATION OF DISEASE

An endoscopic imaging device is disclosed. The device includes a body portion configured to be held in a user's hand and an endoscope portion configured to direct light onto a target. At least one excitation light source is configured to excite autofluorescence emissions of tissue cells and fluorescence emissions of induced porphyrins in tissue cells of the target. A white light source is configured to illuminate the surgical margin during white light imaging of the target. The device also includes an imaging sensor and a first optical filter configured to filter optical signals emitted by the target responsive to illumination with excitation light and permit passage of autofluorescence emissions of tissue cells and fluorescence emissions of the induced porphyrins in tissue cells to the imaging sensor. A second optical filter configured to filter optical signals emitted by the target responsive to illumination with white light and permit passage of white light emissions of tissues in the surgical margin to the imaging sensor. The endoscopic imaging device may be modular and comprise a base body portion that releasably receives, in an interchangeable fashion, one or more endoscopic optical housing portions.
