Abstract: An endoscopic treatment device includes a hollow tube; an electrode; and an insulative support member. In a radial direction relative to a longitudinal axis of the hollow tube, the insulative support member is radially outward of the electrode and the hollow tube is radially outward of the insulative support member.

Abstract: The present invention provides a clip system that is optimal for suture treatment of living tissue. The clip system includes a clip unit having a first arm and a second arm capable of opening and closing, a wire capable of opening and closing the clip, and a sheath through which the wire can be inserted. The clip unit includes a support portion that swingably supports the first arm and the second arm.

Abstract: An endoscope system includes: a drive cable; an endoscope that has a bending portion that is capable of bending and is driven by the connected drive cable; a drive device that electrically drives the connected drive cable; a trolley equipped with the drive device; a stand that connects the drive cable and the endoscope and is capable of being installed at a position away from the trolley; and an operation device that is communicably connected to the drive device and attached to the stand.

Abstract: An endoscope includes a grasp section. The grasp section includes: a first surface adjacent, in the longitudinal axis, to a surface where the bending operation knob is provided, a protruding portion radially outwardly protruding to the longitudinal axis at a position adjacent to the first surface around the longitudinal axis, a first inclined surface provided on the protruding portion at a side adjacent to the first surface and inclined to the first surface, and a second inclined surface which is provided, on the protruding portion, at a side opposite to the first inclined surface across the protruding portion, and which is inclined to the first surface.

Abstract: An operation device for an into-bore introduction device, includes: a projecting portion formed to project from a grasping section in a radial direction to a longitudinal axis of the grasping section, in a surface between a surface on which a bending operation knob is disposed and a surface on which operator's palm abuts to grasp the grasping section, in the grasping section; a pressing switch disposed on the projecting portion; and an inclined surface formed distantly by as much as a predetermined distance from the pressing switch, and in which an amount of the inclined surface to project outside in the radial direction is decreased on an insertion section side of the projecting portion.

Abstract: An upright microscope includes: a stage on which a specimen is placed; a revolver configured to hold a plurality of objective lenses and enable each objective lens on an observation optical axis to be switched by rotating an operation collar; a lens barrel including an optical system; a microscope body including a base, a stand that stands on a back side of the base and holds the stage, and an arm that is supported by the stand, extends toward a font side of the upright microscope, and includes a top part to which the lens barrel is attached and a bottom part to which the revolver is attached; and a finger hooking part that is positioned between the revolver and a lower part of the lens barrel and is for placing any of hand fingers other than a thumb of an observer when rotating the operation collar.

Abstract: In a surgical treatment instrument, a probe extending in a longitudinal axial direction is inserted through a sheath, and each of sheath components, in the sheath, is divided from a neighboring sheath component at a dividing plane along the longitudinal axial direction. A flow of liquid to a proximal side in an inside of the sheath is prevented by a first seal portion. In a divided part between each of the sheath components and the neighboring sheath component, liquid-tight is kept by the second seal portion, and thereby a flow of the liquid to the proximal side is prevented.
