Olympus GIF-Q165: A High-Performance Endoscope for Digestive Exploration
The Olympus GIF-Q165 is a videoscope dedicated to exploring the upper digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. As part of the EVIS EXERA II series, it is designed to offer excellent image quality and optimized maneuverability during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. With a wide 140° viewing angle, clinicians benefit from an extended field of observation, enabling precise evaluation of mucous membranes and anatomical structures.
The GIF-Q165 is designed for smooth and intuitive handling. Its 9.2 mm diameter insertion tube is thin enough to facilitate introduction and navigation within the digestive tract while ensuring precise control of movements. The 2.8 mm diameter operating channel allows the use of various endo-therapeutic instruments, ensuring targeted and secure interventions.
The distal section of the videoscope features an extended angulation capability, with 210° upward, 90° downward, and 100° side-to-side flexibility. This versatility allows practitioners to examine hard-to-reach areas without compromising patient safety.
The GIF-Q165 endoscope ensures optimal tissue visualization through its optical system. Its depth of field, ranging from 3 to 100 mm, provides clear focus, essential for precisely identifying gastrointestinal abnormalities and lesions. Paired with Olympus CLV-160 and CLE-145 light sources, it delivers uniform illumination and faithful color reproduction.
The endoscope's objective is designed for frontal visualization, facilitating direct examination of internal walls and reducing the need for frequent instrument repositioning.
The GIF-Q165 is designed to accommodate a wide range of medical accessories. Its operating channel allows the introduction of biopsy forceps, polypectomy snares, injection probes, and other essential devices for endoscopic interventions. This compatibility with numerous accessories optimizes the efficiency of therapeutic procedures while reducing examination time.
The GIF-Q165 endoscope meets strict medical safety and hygiene standards. It is designed for use with Olympus disinfection and reprocessing systems, ensuring effective cleaning after each use. It features functionalities for efficient rinsing of lenses and the operating channel, preventing any obstructions that could impair examination quality.
Its resistance to temperature and humidity variations allows for safe storage and transport, with tolerances ranging from -47°C to 70°C and relative humidity from 10 to 95%.
