Key Features of the Olympus CV-170

• High-Quality Imaging: Explain how the CV-170 delivers clear, high-resolution images crucial for accurate diagnostics. Emphasize its capabilities in enhancing subtle features, which is important in identifying pathologies.

• Dual Focus Technology: Discuss the system’s innovative dual focus technology, which allows for a detailed view of mucosal structures.
• LED Light Source: Highlight the long-lasting LED light source, providing bright, consistent illumination while energy-efficient.
• User-Friendly Interface: Mention its intuitive interface, allowing straightforward operation and efficient procedure workflows.
• Narrow Band Imaging NBI: Thanks to the ability of hemoglobin to absorb light of a certain wavelength and scatter it in biological tissues, thereby contrasting blood vessels and mucosal structures, the CV-170 Optera is a powerful tool for the early diagnosis of cancer and focal mucosal lesions. Olympus uses two wavelengths, 415 nm (blue) and 540 nm (green), to maximize the photochromic function of hemoglobin.

Applications in Medical Labs and Clinics

Detail how the Olympus CV-170 is utilized in various medical procedures:

• Gastroenterology: For endoscopic examinations like gastroscopies and colonoscopies.
• Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT): In ENT procedures, providing detailed views of the throat and nasal passages.

Advantages of Using the Olympus CV-170

• Diagnostic Precision: Emphasize the system’s ability to provide clear and detailed images, leading to more accurate diagnoses.

Color tone adjustments	Red adjustment: ±8 steps, Blue adjustment: ±8 steps, Chroma adjustment: ±8 steps
Automatic gain control (AGC)	The image can be electronically amplified when the light is inadequate due to the distal end of the endoscope being too far from the object.
Noise reduction	Noise is corrected by image processing
Iris	The auto iris modes can be selected using the “iris mode” switch on the front panel. Peak: The brightness is adjusted based on the brightest part of the endoscopic image. Average: the brightness is adjusted based on the average brightness of the endoscopic image.
Image enhancement setting	Fine patterns or edges in the endoscopic images can be enhanced electrically to increase the image sharpness. Either the structural enhancement or edge enhancement can be selected according to the user setup Structural enhancement: Enhancement of contrast of the fine patterns in the image. Edge enhancement: Enhancement of edges of the endoscopic image.
Freeze	An endoscopic image is frozen using an endoscope or the “FREEZE” key on the keyboard
