Olympus VIDEO GASTROSCOPE OLYMPUS-GIF-Q260

OLYMPUS GIF-Q260 – Video Gastroscope

The OLYMPUS GIF-Q260 is a flexible video gastroscope from the EVIS LUCERA 260 Series, designed for upper gastrointestinal endoscopic examinations. It provides a 140° forward-viewing field, a 1030 mm working length, and a 2.8 mm instrument channel for diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Key Features

• Wide Field of View: The GIF-Q260 provides a 140° forward-viewing field, allowing a broad area of the upper gastrointestinal tract to be observed during examination.
• Depth of Field: The specified depth of field is 3–100 mm, supporting visualization of structures at different distances from the distal tip.
• Compact Distal Tip: The distal end has an outer diameter of approximately 9.2 mm, providing a relatively compact profile for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
• Insertion Tube: The insertion tube has an outer diameter of approximately 9.2 mm, with a working length of 1030 mm.
• 2.8 mm Instrument Channel: The GIF-Q260 incorporates a 2.8 mm working channel, allowing compatible endotherapy accessories to be introduced during procedures.
• Wide Angulation: The distal bending section provides angulation of up to 210° upward, 90° downward, 100° right, and 100° left, supporting maneuverability around anatomical curves.
• Minimum Visible Distance: The minimum visible distance is approximately 3 mm from the distal end, supporting close observation of mucosal structures.
• NBI Compatibility: Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) observation is available when the GIF-Q260 is used with the appropriate compatible EVIS LUCERA system.

Clinical Applications

The GIF-Q260 is designed for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, including examination of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Its combination of a wide viewing angle, flexible insertion section, extensive distal angulation, and 2.8 mm working channel makes it suitable for diagnostic examinations and procedures requiring compatible endoscopic instruments.

Imaging and Visualization

The forward-viewing optical system provides a 140° field of view with a depth of field ranging from 3 to 100 mm. When connected to a compatible EVIS LUCERA system, the GIF-Q260 can also support NBI observation, providing an image-enhanced observation mode for endoscopic examination.
