"The conventional bending radius of the colonoscope allows retroflection in various colon segments to check for polyps behind colonic folds."

"The CE Mark is a significant accomplishment for our company, which enables us to provide endoscopists in Europe with a more advanced technology to perform colonoscopies and a system that enhances patient safety over current devices."

Its camera uses CMOS imaging chip and three white-light LEDs as a light source for imaging purpose and its robotically-assisted deflecting tip enables the device to bend at an angle of 180° in all directions.

The conventional bending radius of the colonoscope allows retroflection in various colon segments to check for polyps behind colonic folds.

Its 3.1mm working channel enables its interaction with standard endotherapy instruments.

The colonoscope is based on invendo’s proprietary diagnostic mode for convenient tip circulation which improves the effective field-of-view.

The invendoscope SC200 supports standard functions like rinsing, flushing, suction and insufflation with a separate water jet port used for the increasingly popular water immersion or water exchange methods.
