Method and apparatus for hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy

An endoscopic device, comprising:

• an elongate cannula configured for insertion through a cervix into a uterus;
• a camera assembly disposed adjacent a distal end of the elongate cannula for acquiring imagery of the uterus;
• a fluid port adjacent the distal end of the elongate cannula and through which fluid can flow to move debris away from the camera assembly to enhance the imagery acquired by the camera assembly;
• a handle disposed proximal to the elongate cannula;
• a display screen mounted to the handle;
• a memory configured to store instructions;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising:
• processing the imagery acquired by the camera assembly to generate processed imagery of the uterus, and
• initiating presentation of one or more graphical user interfaces (GUIs) on the display screen, the one or more GUIs presenting the processed imagery of the uterus and one or more menus for collecting patient information via one or more soft buttons provided by the one or more menus, the one or more GUIs presenting the processed imagery of the uterus as a live video feed on the display screen automatically upon receipt of the patient information via the one or more soft buttons as the camera assembly continues to acquire additional imagery of the uterus, such that the live video feed provides live viewing of the uterus from the additional imagery,
• wherein the display screen is mounted to a proximal end of the handle such that the live video feed presented on the display screen automatically upon receipt of the patient information is viewable by a user of the endoscopic device while the endoscopic device is manipulated by the user.
