Olympus CV-145: A High-Performance Video Processor for Precise Endoscopic Examinations
The Olympus CV-145 is a video processor specifically designed for endoscopic applications, offering optimal image quality for precise and detailed examinations. It is part of the EVIS EXERA series, renowned for its efficiency in medical settings. With its multiple features, it meets the demands of healthcare professionals seeking both performance and ease of use.
One of the major strengths of the CV-145 lies in its image processing system, which provides enhanced definition and accurate color reproduction. It includes an edge enhancement function, adjustable across three levels (low, medium, high), facilitating the visualization of fine anatomical structures. Its seven-level color tone adjustment ensures optimal adaptation to practitioners' preferences.
The device offers several video output options: composite video, Y/C, and RGB, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of medical monitors. It also features an image freeze function, allowing doctors to analyze a specific area in detail without interrupting the ongoing examination. This function is accessible via a dedicated button on both the processor's keyboard and the control section of connected video endoscopes.
In terms of ergonomics, the CV-145 is designed to meet the requirements of modern endoscopy rooms. Its compact design (25% smaller than previous models) facilitates integration into confined spaces while maintaining optimal accessibility to frequently used buttons and indicators. It is also designed to operate in conjunction with a CLE-145 halogen light source, ensuring adequate brightness for various examination conditions.
The CV-145 incorporates a patient data management system, displaying essential information such as the patient's name, age, sex, physician identification, and the date and time of the examination. It also allows for the recording of a list of up to 40 patients, facilitating the tracking and organization of medical procedures.
Regarding power supply, the device operates on 100-120 V AC at 50/60 Hz, with a moderate power consumption of 1.0 A under NTSC standards. It is classified as Class I / Type BF for protection against electric shocks, complying with current hospital safety standards.
Thanks to its compatibility with various auxiliary equipment, such as monitors, video printers, and irrigation pumps, the CV-145 seamlessly integrates with existing systems to optimize medical procedures. Its design, focused on efficiency and practicality, makes it an essential tool for professionals seeking to combine image quality, ease of use, and space savings in their work environment.
