A compact flexible video endoscope system provides excellent image quality and brilliant light emitting diode (LED) illumination.

The ENDOCAM Flex HD system is designed for physicians in private practice, specialist outpatient operating centers, accident and emergency units, and hospitals in general. A miniaturized design enables it to be used where there is no space for conventional large camera controllers. The system therefore comes with a C-mount lens for various adaptation options, and an integrated VESA 100 interface for wall mounting or attachment on the side of an equipment cart. An optional camera head is available for use with traditional rigid optical endoscopes.

"Plug & Play" compatibility facilitates fitting of a large range of flexible sensor endoscopes to the camera controller. A total of six different sensor endoscopes are available for urology and pulmonology. For urology, options include a 2-channel sensor uretero-renoscope (the COBRA vision EF), a single-channel sensor uretero-renoscope (the BOA vision EF), and a sensor cystoscope. For pulmonology, options include a sensor bronchoscope for diagnostics, a sensor bronchoscope for therapy, and an optional slim line bronchoscope.

The camera is paired to the ENDOLIGHT Flex LED, which is characterized by low power consumption and very little heat. The LED light source is also very quiet, and therefore improves the working conditions in the operating room. An optional holder allows the camera controller and the light source to be adapted to a monitor. The ENDOCAM Flex HD and ENDOLIGHT Flex LED system are products of Richard Wolf (Knittlingen, Germany).
