Urological
endoscopes are long tube-like instruments used in a number of urological
procedures to examine inside the body or perform minimally invasive surgery.
Urological endoscopes include cystoscopes for endoscopy of the urinary bladder,
ureteroscopes for examining the ureter, resectoscopes used in transurethral
resection of the prostate (TURP) and nephroscopes used to examine the kidneys.
Endoscopes
generally comprise of a telescope, sheath and bridge. As the outer portion of
the endoscope, the sheath houses the working channels from which instruments
such as laser fibers are passed through the endoscope. The bridge creates a
watertight connection between the telescope and sheath. Bridges can have
side-arms to introduce instruments and deflecting bridges can be placed into
sheaths for the use of flexible instruments. The telescope carries the
fiber-optic illuminating system which transmits from eyepiece to lens.
Endoscopes are connected to light sources and equipment such as video cameras.
In turn a video monitor displays the images during endoscopic procedures and
can be attached to recording devices. Advances in endoscopes include: lighter
and more compact models; digital rather than fiber-optic systems which produce
clearer images; flexible endoscopes which are able to reach parts of the body
which rigid endoscopes cannot; and accessories or equipment which improve the
convenience of using endoscopes (for example endoscopes with built-in filters
for laser procedures). Unless otherwise specified, this report refers to a new
unit sold as all components that are required to perform a procedure and in
general refurbished units concentrate on the telescope component.
The
urological endoscope market is comprised of rigid and flexible cystoscopes,
semi-rigid and flexible ureteroscopes, rigid resectoscopes and rigid
nephroscopes. This report includes the sale of new endoscopes as well as
refurbished or repaired units. The refurbished endoscope market in this report
refers to units that undergo maintenance or repair and includes repairs made by
third-party re-processors.
