Abstract

The present invention relates to a combined ultrasound and endoscopy system. The combined ultrasonic and endoscopy system includes a cannulawith a distal tip configured for insertion into an internal organ or other internal body structure. The distal tip is configured to include both an ultrasound probe head and a camera module. The ultrasonic and direct vision endoscopy images can be simultaneously displayed to a user on a display monitor. The ultrasound probe head can be rotated and steered to scan any location in the human organ cavity. The ultrasound probe can be re-usable or single use. The endoscopy system can be configured with a handheld portion that includes a re-usable handle portion and a single use portion that is configured to be disposed of following a single use. The system can also be configured using a conventional re-usable endoscope with working channels and an endoscopy processing tower system.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 933,216, filed November 8, 2019, and PCT Application No. PCT / IB2020 / 000470, filed June 11, 2020, which was adopted by Incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] This patent specification generally relates to a medical device for examination of tissues and organs. More specifically, some embodiments relate to a combined ultrasound and endoscope system for examining internal organs and other internal body structures. Background technique [0004] Ultrasound is a sound wave with a frequency higher than that audible to humans (>20,000Hz). Ultrasound images, also called sonograms, are made by using a probe to send ultrasound pulses into tissue. Ultrasound pulses echo from tissue with different reflective properties and are recorded and displayed as an image. Typically medical ultrasound is used to create images of internal organs...
