The application discloses a dilator, which comprises a circular ring for supporting a vagina and a first connecting piece, a plurality of the circular rings can move on the first connecting piece to change the interval, the circular ring is provided with an adjusting assembly capable of adjusting the radial size of the circular ring, a plurality of groups of the adjusting assemblies are connected through a second connecting piece, and the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece are connected with a group of operating mechanisms; the application sets a plurality of coaxial circular rings which are connected with each other to support the vagina of a patient, the outer diameter of the plurality of circular rings can be freely adjusted, the plurality of circular rings can be uniformly supported in a circumferential shape, the field of view of the vagina wall after being supported is better, meanwhile, the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece are located at the edge of the circular ring, so that the middle space surrounded by the circular ring is not affected, and the field of view is better. The axial distance of the plurality of circular rings can also be adjusted, the inspection requirement of medical staff and the comfort requirement of the patient are considered, the structure is cleverly arranged, and the dilator has high practicability.

The invention relates to an apparatus and a method, termed the "Capsul eProbe", adapted from the capsule endoscopy technology for cervical and / or vaginal examinations. The CapsuleProbe features a capsule endoscope enclosed in a cylindrical housing designed for easy insertion into the vaginal canal. This device provides a minimally invasive and user-friendly option for patients as well as enhanced visualization of the cervix for healthcare providers. With its substantially minimized dimensions comparing to existing medical devices for cervical and / or vaginal examinations, this device improves feasibility, accessibility, and patient comfort significantly, particularly for postmenopausal women and those suffering from vaginal atrophy, by reducing or eliminating procedure-related pain and / or bleeding from the tearing of vaginal walls caused by existing invasive medical devices used for cervical and / or vaginal examinations.

The invention discloses a vaginal speculum which comprises a first ring, a second ring and a third ring. A supporting cylinder is coaxially arranged at one end, in the axial direction, of the first ring; the supporting cylinder comprises at least three elastic supporting parts which are sequentially arranged in the circumferential direction, and the supporting cylinder has a first state in which the ends, deviating from the first ring, of the multiple elastic supporting parts are compressed and folded in the radial direction and a free state in which the ends, deviating from the first ring, of the multiple elastic supporting parts are expanded and unfolded in the radial direction; the supporting cylinder in the free state is conical, the outer diameter of the supporting cylinder is gradually reduced towards the first ring in the axial direction, and the minimum inner diameter of the supporting cylinder in the free state is larger than the inner diameter of the first ring. By means of the vaginal dilator, the loose vaginal wall can be basically and completely dilated, the cervix and the vaginal fornix around the cervix are fully exposed, and the operation and observation view is clearer.
