![]() The EVIS LUCERA SPECTRUM system supports three types of special illumination imaging: Narrow Band Imaging (NBI), Auto Fluorescence Imaging (AFI) and Infra Red Imaging (IRI)*8. In June 2006 the EVIS LUCERA SPECTRUM video-scope System was launched for support the early detection of minute lesions associated with cancer and in the detailed diagnosis to ascertain the extent of lesions prior to therapy. Olympus has also developed the technology of specific light spectra for enhancing images of characteristic lesions in the superficial and deep layers of the mucosa. A key advance in endoscopic diagnosis technology was the introduction of HDTV imaging in 2002 to provide high-definition images of subtle colors and minute irregularities, especially in mucosal membranes. Endoscopes are being used increasingly to screen for lesions in the gastrointestinal tract, and these instruments have become essential tools for detailed examinations, diagnosis and treatment. Japan’s cancer mortality rate, especially gastrointestinal cancers, such as colon and rectal cancers, has tended to rise in recent years in step with demographic aging. ![]() Support for HDTV imaging and optical magnification function The world’s first gastrointestinal videoscopes designed for Auto Fluorescence Imaging (AFI) observation NBI is a special observation technology used to create enhanced images of surface capillaries and minute patterns on mucosal membranes by irradiating target areas with light in two narrow wave bands (390-445 nm and 530-550 nm), which are strongly absorbed by circulating hemoglobin.ĮVIS LUCERA GASTROINTESTINAL VIDEOSCOPE GIF Type FQ260Z*5ĮVIS LUCERACOLONOVIDEOSCOPECF Type FH260AZ Series*5Ĭan be used with EVIS LUCERA Video System Center CV-260SL and EVIS LUCERA Xenon Light Source CLV-260SL. This is based on Olympus research as of January 17,2007 and refers to gastrointestinal endoscopes. ![]() Furthermore, they can be switched to Narrow Band Imaging (NBI)*4 simply at the touch of a button. In addition to Auto Fluorescence Imaging (AFI), the scopes also support HDTV imaging in normal light*3 and optical magnification function. They will be released in Japan in Februand will be progressively introduced in Europe and in Asian markets, including China, South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore.īoth scopes are equipped with highly-sensitive CCDs that were specially designed for fluorescence observation, as well as normal light CCDs. The EVIS LUCERA GASTROINTESTINAL VIDEOSCOPE GIF Type FQ260Z (referred to below as “GIF-FQ260Z”) is for use in the upper gastrointestinal tract and the EVIS LUCERA COLONOVIDEOSCOPE CF Type FH260AZL/I (referred to below as “CF-FH260AZL/I”) for use in the colon. The AFI produces enhanced images showing differences in the coloration of tumorous and normal mucosa by irradiating blue light on mucosa. Developed to support the early detection of minute lesions associated with cancer and other conditions, these new devices are the first in the world*1 to support Auto Fluorescence Imaging (AFI) *2. (President: Haruhito Morishima) is pleased to announce the launch of two new gastrointestinal video-scopes.
