EndoChoice released the C38s, a slim colonoscope, which joins the company's portfolio of Fuse Full Spectrum Endoscopy products.
The C38s has a 330-degree field of view and a large 3.8 mm instrument channel included in a slim profile endoscope.
"The new C38s slim colonoscope drives and performs like a traditional colonoscope with all of the benefits of a slim diameter," said Steven Morris, MD, CEO of Atlanta Gastroenterology Associates. "The larger channel means I don't sacrifice functionality when I use a slimmer scope. This is a real breakthrough."
EndoChoice made headlines earlier this year when a study published in The Lancet Oncology demonstrated that 330-degree view of the FUSE scope outperformed traditional forward-viewing scopes in adenoma detection rate.
