Key Specifications of Olympus PCF-240I:


Imaging and Video Quality:

Standard Definition (SD) Imaging: The PCF-240I offers standard definition video, which is suitable for general ERCP procedures. While it may not offer the high-definition clarity of newer models like the PCF-H290DL, it still provides clear and reliable visuals for diagnosis and treatment.

Conventional Imaging: It does not have advanced technologies like Narrow Band Imaging (NBI), which are available in later models, but it still offers good image clarity for most basic ERCP applications.


Slim and Flexible Design:

Outer Diameter: The outer diameter of the duodenoscope is 12.8 mm, which is relatively slim, improving patient comfort during the procedure.

Insertion Tube Length: The insertion tube is approximately 1030 mm in length, which allows for thorough examination and treatment of the duodenum, pancreatic duct, and bile duct.

Flexible Insertion Tube: The insertion tube is flexible, allowing for smooth navigation around the complex anatomy of the duodenum and biliary system.


Field of View and Depth of Field:

Field of View: The PCF-240I provides a 140° field of view, offering a wide-angle perspective during procedures, helping to visualize large areas of the duodenum and bile ducts.

Depth of Field: The scope offers an optimal depth of field, enabling clear visualization of both near and distant tissues, which is crucial during therapeutic procedures like stone removal or stent placement.


Instrument Channel:

Instrument Channel Diameter: The PCF-240I has a 3.7 mm instrument channel, which is suitable for various accessories used in ERCP, such as biopsy forceps, guidewires, stents, and stone extraction baskets.

Instrument Compatibility: The 3.7 mm diameter allows for the use of a wide range of therapeutic tools, which is essential for procedures like sphincterotomy, stent placement, and biliary stone extraction.


Ergonomics and Maneuverability:

Ergonomically Designed Handle: The duodenoscope is designed with an ergonomic handle to provide a comfortable grip for the clinician, reducing hand fatigue during longer procedures.

Excellent Maneuverability: The scope offers excellent flexibility and maneuverability, allowing it to navigate the difficult-to-reach areas of the duodenum, pancreatic duct, and bile ducts. This ensures greater ease of movement during ERCP procedures.


Waterproof and Durable:

Water-Resistant: Like other Olympus duodenoscopes, the PCF-240I is designed to be water-resistant, making it easier to clean and sterilize after each use.

Durable Construction: The scope is built to withstand frequent use in the clinical setting, ensuring longevity and reliable performance over time.


Light Source Compatibility:

The PCF-240I is compatible with the Olympus CLV Series light sources, providing consistent, high-quality illumination during ERCP procedures. The light sources offer bright and clear lighting, which is essential for optimal visualization of the biliary system and duodenum.


Applications:

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): The primary use of the PCF-240I is for performing ERCP, which is a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure used to examine the bile ducts, pancreatic duct, and duodenum.

Therapeutic Interventions: The instrument channel allows the use of various therapeutic tools, such as stone extraction baskets, balloon dilators, stents, and biopsy forceps, enabling interventions for gallstones, pancreatitis, tumors, and other biliary tract conditions.


System Integration:

The PCF-240I integrates with the Olympus video processor and light sources, creating a comprehensive system that enhances the efficiency and accuracy of ERCP procedures.


Conclusion:

The Olympus PCF-240I is an established video duodenoscope designed for use in ERCP procedures. While it offers standard definition imaging, it remains an effective tool for diagnosing and treating conditions related to the biliary system and pancreatic ducts. Its ergonomic design, reliable performance, and compatibility with therapeutic tools make it a valuable choice for clinicians performing ERCP, even though newer models have higher-definition imaging and additional features like Narrow Band Imaging (NBI).
