Olympus CV-180: High-Performance Endoscopic Video Processor

The Olympus CV-180 video processor sets a major milestone in the field of endoscopic imaging, establishing a new standard in visual quality and advanced features. Designed to work in tandem with the CLV-180 light source, the CV-180 is a reliable and high-performing video processor, offering exceptional image quality. Suitable for various types of endoscopes, including the EVIS 100/130/140 and EVIS EXERA 160 series, as well as bronchoscopes and surgical endoscopes, the CV-180 opens the door to detailed and precise visual exploration.

One of the standout features of the CV-180 is its ability to provide HD/SD SDI video output, ensuring high-quality image transfer. This feature is essential for optimal visualization of capillary structures, mucosa, and other patterns during endoscopic examinations. Furthermore, the system is equipped with Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) technology that enhances the visibility of capillaries and other structures on mucosal surfaces. The CV-180 offers two structure enhancement modes, the original Type A for observing larger mucosal structures with high contrast, and the new Type B for observing smaller structures such as capillaries.

The addition of an electronic magnification function allows for the enlargement of moving images with a simple press of a button, offering magnifications of 1.2X or 1.5X. This feature facilitates detailed observation of target areas, enhancing diagnostic accuracy. Additionally, the CV-180 supports digital recording of still images and videos, storing still images on xD cards via a PC card adapter and videos on digital video recorders via IEEE 1394 (FireWire, DV, iLINK) using remote control switches.

The automatic iris function eliminates the need to switch between Peak and Average modes, simplifying the conventional manual adjustment process. For in-depth analysis, the system offers a picture-in-picture display for any combination of endoscopic, fluoroscopic, and ultrasound images. Moreover, the index display function facilitates documentation, while the Scope ID function simplifies endoscopy suite management and lays the groundwork for future system expansion.

The specifications of the CV-180 include options for HDTV and SDTV signal output, white balance adjustment, standard color chart output, automatic gain control (AGC), contrast options, iris adjustment, image enhancement setting, and more. The various image enhancement modes, image size adjustments, and parameter selection can be customized according to specific endoscopic examination requirements.

In terms of documentation, the CV-180 offers remote control for remote operation, advanced input of patient data, pre-registration of patient data, and the ability to control various auxiliary equipment such as VCRs, video printers, image filing systems, and endoscopic ultrasound centers.

Data storage is facilitated on xD cards with various capacities, and the system supports multiple recording formats such as TIFF, SHQ, HQ, and SQ. Images can be recorded and played back with ease, offering maximum flexibility for further analysis.

Compact and lightweight, the CV-180 is classified as Class I medical electrical equipment, providing reliable protection against electric shock. It is important to note that the system should not be placed near flammable gas, ensuring safety in the medical environment.

Powered by a 220-240V AC power source with a frequency of 50/60 Hz, the CV-180 ensures stable performance even in the face of voltage or frequency fluctuations. With dimensions of 382mm width, 91mm height, and 490mm depth, the CV-180 is compact and easy to integrate into any medical setting.

Olympus CV-180 represents a significant advancement in endoscopic imaging technology. With its advanced features, extensive compatibility with various endoscopes, and the ability to deliver high-quality images, it stands as the ideal choice for healthcare professionals seeking reliable and high-performing equipment for the most demanding endoscopic procedures.
