Workshop 1 - Introducing Endocyto

Timing: Tuesday, 29 Jan - 11:00-11:30
Location: Olympus Booth, H3.C30
Presenter: Mahmoud Itani, Gastroenterology & Respiratory Sales & Marketing Specialist , Olympus MEA, Medical Systems Division

Beyond Imagination - Introducing Endocyto, Olympus has broken a new ground in endoscopy.

Ultra-high magnification with up to 520x magnification ratio enables observation on microscopic level and helps to improve diagnostic accuracy. Endocyto presents a new era of diagnostic endoscopy.

Real-Time in vivo Observation of Cells and Nuclei Opens New Possibilities for Diagnostic Endoscopy

• Operation of the Zoom Lever to Change Magnification Levels
  Endocyto is equipped with a manual zoom mechanism resembling a conventional magnifying scope. With just a single endoscope, switching from normal view to magnifying observation and Endocyto observation is possible.
• Principle of Endocyto Observation
  Cell nuclei are stained with an appropriate dye. The objective lens is then brought into contact with the mucosa to observe the cells of the superficial mucosal layer. Light emitted by the light guide is sent into the cells and partially returned as scattered light, facilitating cytological observation of the superficial mucosal layer.

Endocytoscopes Feature HDTV, NBI and Endocyto Observation in a Small-Diameter Endoscope

• Gastroscope GIF-H290EC
  The Endocyto gastroscope incorporates a broad range of observation modalities including magnifying NBI and 520x magnifying Endocyto observation for lesion assessment. Combined with a slim diameter of 9.7 mm, this versatile endoscope can be used in all different diagnostic gastroscopies from routine examinations to cutting-edge diagnosis.
• Colonoscope CF-H290ECI
  The Endocyto colonoscope is combining cutting-edge observation with proven insertion technologies to support patient-friendly high-quality colonoscopy. Magnified NBI and 520x magnifying Endocyto observation support precise diagnosis of colorectal lesions to streamline therapeutic intervention. High Force Transmission and Variable Stiffness facilitate smooth maneuverability in this 12.8 mm slim-caliber colonoscope.

Endocyto can be connected to the EVIS LUCERA ELITE System
Endocyto can be used as soon as you connect it to your EVIS LUCERA ELITE system. The one-touch connector minimizes the effort required for setup prior to and in between cases and eliminates the need for a water-resistant cap and the associated risk of an expensive repair due to accidental immersion.

Workshop 2- Q&A Endoscopy Manual Cleaning Session

Timing: 11:00-11:30 everyday during Arab Health
Location: Olympus Booth, H3.C30
Presenter: Baha'Eddine Halawani, CDS Sales and Marketing Specialist

The endoscopy manual cleaning session will provide an overview of Olympus guidelines for endoscope manual reprocessing with the ETD DOUBLE - Advancing the efficiency of reprocessing.

ETD Double provides hospitals with the most advanced solutions for efficient and reproducible hygiene results. Versatility and capacity add a new dimension of speed and efficiency to busy endoscopy departments.

Highlights:

• Double-door design for clear separation of the dirtyand clean endocopes during the reprocessing stages.
• Simultaneous reprocessing of up to three flexibleendoscopes.
• Innovative adapters that are easy to use and supportsafe reprocessing of endoscope channels.
• Open tray concept for utmost flexibility duringplacement of all endoscopes, and tailored to supportthe flow of endoscopes in the reprocessing area.
• Single-channel flow monitoring of up to sevenchannels for function compatible endoscopes.
• Sliding glass doors and illuminated washing chamberfor more transparency at every phase of thereprocessing process.
• Fully automated endoscope, user, and processchemistry tracing, based on RFID technology.
