Polyp screen

A screen for use with a fluid/specimen collector for collecting and trapping patient specimen(s) during a medical procedure, such fluid/specimen collector comprising a collecting trap for receiving fluid/specimen(s) therein, a lid cooperating with such collecting trap, an intake member for transferring fluid/specimen(s) from a patient into such collecting trap, and a waste exit member for transferring excess fluid from such collecting trap into a waste container, said screen comprising:

• (a) an insert member capable of being placed within such lid of such fluid/specimen collector;
• (b) an intake aperture extending through said insert member, said intake aperture having a predetermined size and shape to enable such intake member to extend through said insert member and to transfer fluid/specimen(s) from a patient into such collecting trap, and
• (c) a plurality of straining apertures extending through said insert member, said straining apertures having a predetermined size and shape capable of allowing excess fluid to pass there through and exit such collector through such waste exit member while preventing specimens from passing through said straining apertures and trapping such specimens within such fluid/specimen collector.
