Abstract
A medical assembly may include a first imaging device and a second imaging device. The first imaging device may have a first shaft, a first cable, and a second cable extending from the first handle. The second cable may be in electrical communication with the first cable. A first imager may be disposed at a distal end of the first shaft. The second imaging device may have a second handle, a third cable extending from the second handle, and a second shaft extending distally from the second handle. A second imager may be disposed at a distal end of the second shaft. The first imaging device and the second imaging device may be configured to connect via the third cable, thereby transmitting imaging data from the second imager through the first cable, the second cable, and the third cable.
