ENDOSCOPY
THE NAME ENDOSCOPE IS DERIVED FROM TWO GREEK
WORDS WHICH ARE ENDOM (WITHIN) AND SKOPEIN (VIEW).
A BUNDLE OF PRECISELY ALIGNED FLEXIBLE OPTICAL
FIBERS IS USED SOME FOR USE AS AN IMAGE GUIDE AND THE
OTHER AS A LIGHT GUIDE
ADDITIONALLY, ANCILLARY CHANNELS MAY BE PRESENT FOR
THE PASSAGE OF AIR, WATER, AS WELL AS REMOTE CONTROL
IMPLEMENTS SUCH AS BIOPSY FORCEPS OR CYTOLOGY
BRUSHES.

Intra-Oral Dental Cameras
As it is nearly impossible to see inside your own mouth, intra-oral
cameras provide a previously unseen view. As the camera moves
around your mouth, it sends video images to a computing unit where
the images are enlarged and transmitted to a television screen.

Lasers & Medicine
• Greater accuracy of incisions
• Lasers can be inserted inside the body with little
risk or discomfort
• Incisions can be guided by computers
• The laser is extremely precise, and can be
tuned to work on a micro-level, barely visible to
the human eye

ADVANTAGES FOR THE LASER
AS A
MEDICAL CUTTING TOOL
Lasers & Medicine
• Certain conditions which were once inoperable due to the
accuracy of incisions necessary are now possible.
• Today, compact lasers can be inserted inside the body
with little risk or discomfort, going places and
performing surgeries that were not humanly
possible before.
• Lasers guided by computers can eliminate human error
in surgery.

: ‘Smart’ Bed
• The ‘Smart’ Bed Concept was Developed in Response to the
Need for Non-Intrusive Automated Monitoring of Patient
Movement and Vital Signs
• A long gauge length integrating fiber optic sensor is integrated
into a standard patient bed beneath the mattress.
• Patient physical movement and movement due to respiration and
heartbeat perturb the fiber.
• Modulation of the optical signal due to the integrated mechanical
perturbation of the fiber is processed to provide the required
information.

Sedentary patients in nursing homes require
assisted movement to prevent the occurrence
of pressure induced ulcers (bed sores). If
patient movement can be remotely
monitored, optimum schedules for assisted
movement can be devised.
The potential market for such a capability is
in the multi-$B range.

• A new pharmaceutical program that many
Britons might find literally hard to swallow, has
been announced. Pharmacy chain Lloyds
pharmacy has partnered with American
technology firm Proteus Biomedical to
bring to the British public a product called
Helius; a tiny microchip that is swallowed in
pill form and whose purpose is to help remind
patients to take their medications on time and
to offer bio-feedback such as body temperature,
heart rate and even sleeping patterns.

Greek methods of diagnosis and treatment Appeals to the gods
When their doctors could not heal them, many Greeks still appealed to their gods. Places such as Epidaurus had a temple - called an asklepion - to Asklepios, the Greek god of healing.
After exercising and resting, and perhaps taking certain potions, patients slept the night in the holy place - called the abaton - of the temple. Here the god and his daughters Hygeia and Panacea came with two holy snakes, and healed the patients.
The snake is still the symbol of chemists, and the words hygiene and panacea have become a part of our language
