Fiberscope is an endoscope that uses fiber optics to transmit images from inside the human body. Fiberscopes have a great advantage over older endoscopes, as they are flexible and can be inserted into relatively inaccessible cavities of the human body.
Fibroscopy is a method of examining the internal organs and tissues of the body using a special optical device - a fiberscope. A fiberscope, unlike an endoscope, which has a rigid tube, is a flexible tube with an optical system at the end. This allows for examination of hard-to-reach areas of the body, for example, the bronchi, esophagus, and bladder.
The fiberscope is used in various fields of medicine, such as pulmonology, gastroenterology, urology and gynecology. It allows you to detect various diseases such as cancer, ulcers, cysts and other pathologies.
Currently, there are many types of fiberscopes, differing in their characteristics and capabilities. For example, there are high-resolution fiberscopes that can produce clearer images and reveal fine details. There are also fiberscopes for examining the respiratory tract, which provide deeper penetration and a wider view.
The use of fiberoscopy can significantly improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In addition, this allows for more precise operations on internal organs, which increases the effectiveness of treatment and reduces the risk of complications.
Thus, fiberoscopy is an important tool in modern medicine, which allows us to identify and treat various diseases in the early stages.
Fiberscope (lat. fibra - fiber, skopeo - look; Greek σκοπέω - observe)
> An endoscope, in the design of which the light guide channel is made like an optical fiber.[1] Creates an image of the internal structure of the body while studying internal organs and physiological processes. Endoscopes are not medical devices until they are used for diagnosis or treatment. Primarily, the term "endoscope" usually refers to medical equipment, but it can also be applied to optical instruments in various fields and devices where visibility of the internal structure of objects is necessary. Such devices can have different names: gitoscope or fiberscope gitoscope.
Currently, modern fiberscopic systems are most widely used, allowing visualization of tissue structures both in real time and
