"Detect,
Characterize
and Resect Early."

“…And the better the technology, the better you can do your job.”
Our unparalleled product solution assists you throughout the procedure, from detection to treatment. Because in the fight against colorectal cancer, every adenoma counts.

Here’s Why #EveryAdenomaCounts

Up to
26% (that’s 1 in 4)
adenomas are missed during colonoscopies. 1

An increase of
1%
in adenoma detection rate (ADR) results in a decrease of 5% in the risk of a fatal interval cancer. 3

Over
90%
have a 5-year survival rate of stage I CRC diagnoses,
whereas it’s just 14% for those diagnosed at stage IV. 5

Following the detection of adenomas, the majority of these colorectal polyps can be removed endoscopically for a
50% reduction
in CRC mortality. 6

Detection

ENDOCUFF VISION™ — Leading up to 11% Improvement in Your ADR*

ENDOCUFF VISION™ leads up to an 11% improvement in ADR compared to standard colonoscopy alone 7,8.
ENDOCUFF VISION™ has multiple flexible “arms” and attaches to the distal end of your endoscope to mechanically manipulate colonic folds and maximize the field of view. Enhancing the viewable mucosa drastically decreases the polyp miss rate 9.

ENDO-AID CADe — Integrated AI to Improve ADR

ENDO-AID CADe uses AI to suggest the potential presence of lesions to improve ADR 10 and can be used with the EVIS X1 system to provide unmatched colonoscopy imaging.
Harness the power of AI to revolutionize diagnostic imaging. This platform uses computer-aided detection to help identify abnormalities that could easily be missed by the human eye.

EVIS X1 Video Colonoscope CF-EZ1500DL/I — Unparalleled Imaging Technology

The EZ1500 endoscope series — including the extended depth of field (EDOF) technology — improve your observation. The continuously sharp image was developed to reduce the necessity for focal adjustments. This improved visibility helps to make endoscopy more convenient and may even contribute to easier identification and a more confident diagnosis of abnormalities. Therefore characterization schemes, such as JNET may be conveniently applied by using EDOF endoscopes.

Adenoma Characterization

EVIS X1 Endoscopy System

Push boundaries of adenoma detection and characterization with EVIS X1’s industry-leading imaging techniques.

Extended Depth of Field (EDOF) — a lens technology providing high image clarity with broad focus and seamless magnification to ultimately improve characterization of abnormalities including polyps.

Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging (TXI) — an enhanced white-light imaging technique that improves both the detection and characterization of adenomas by accentuating differences in texture and color and provides more uniform illumination.

Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) — a blue-light technology that aids in the characterization of adenomas with its ability to visualize micro-capillaries. Demonstrates a 14% increase in the ADR 11 and is endorsed by ESGE and NICE 12, 13.

Treatment Solution

SnareMaster Plus

This hybrid snare is for use in hot or cold polypectomy and endoscopic mucosal resection. The thin wire and hexagonal shape allow for the safe grasping and clean cutting of large lesions without causing trauma to surrounding tissue. Available in two sizes to suit different sized adenomas and colorectal lesions.

NeedleMaster Injection Needle

Improved processing technology and design results in an ultimate sharp needle with better penetrability and injectability. Available in various lengths and diameters for a variety of applications, including the injection of dye solution immediately prior to resection of adenomas.

Electrosurgical Generator ESG-300

ESG-300 facilitates endoscopy with a simple yet efficient user interface. This system contains a smart argon mode for safe and reliable hemostasis to prevent bleeding after adenoma removal.

Bleeding Management

RDI (Red Dichromatic Imaging)
RDI helps to safely and efficiently treat adenomas. It uses different wavelengths to detect bleeding spots and conduct hemostasis more quickly. This aims to result in less stress for the physician during endoscopic therapy and increased patient care.

Hemostatic Portfolio
Gastrointestinal bleedings are versatile and require a dedicated approach to be managed effectively. If it is injection, thermal coagulation, clipping or ligation - the Olympus bleeding management portfolio covers all it takes for a fast, safe and reliable hemostasis.
