Abstract
Medical endoscope imaging systems and methods of using the same are disclosed. The imaging systems can have an endoscope having an image sensor, a display housing having an image display, a communication link configured to couple the image sensor to the image display, and a camera housing having a camera-sensor. The display housing can be configured to be detachably coupled to the camera housing. The camera-sensor can be configured to receive signals from the image display.
Claims28
An endoscopic imaging system comprising:
- an endoscope having an image sensor;
- a display housing having an image display;
- a communication link configured to couple the image sensor to the image display;
- and
- a camera housing having a camera-sensor,
- wherein the display housing is configured to be detachably coupled to the camera housing, and
- wherein the camera-sensor is configured to receive signals from the image display.
4 more elements
An endoscopic imaging method comprising:
- transmitting signals from a first sensor to a first display;
- transmitting signals from the first display to a second sensor, wherein the second sensor is detachably coupled to the first display;
- and
- transmitting the signals received by the second sensor from the first display to a second display for observation.
1 more element
An endoscope comprising:
- an elongated member having a proximal housing and a distal end;
- an image sensor disposed in the distal end;
- and
- an image display disposed in a proximal-facing recess of the proximal housing.
1 more element
An endoscope system comprising:
- an endoscope comprising an elongated member having a proximal housing and a distal end;
- an image sensor disposed in the distal end;
- and
- a video endoscopy camera-sensor body configured to be mated to the proximal housing,
- wherein the mated proximal housing and video endoscopy camera-sensor body are adapted to provide a light-tight chamber between the image sensor and a camera-sensor.
