Abstract: A portable device for cervical inspection, comprising a plurality of light-emitting diodes comprising a first light-emitting diode group and a second light-emitting diode group, wherein the first light-emitting diode group emits light within a first wavelength range upon operation, and the second light-emitting diode group emits light within a second wavelength range upon operation, wherein the first wavelength range comprises a sub-range of wavelengths shorter than the wavelengths of the second wavelength range, and the second wavelength range comprises a sub-range of wavelengths longer than the wavelengths of the first wavelength range, the portable device further comprising a controller provided for a control of the luminous intensity of the second light-emitting diode group from a first intensity to a second intensity, lower than the first intensity, such that a preferred color rendering for the visual examination of the cervix may be provided.

Abstract: A portable battery powered self-illuminated multispectral multi-magnification colposcope for visual inspection of the cervix. Includes a housing, an eyepiece, at least one illuminator having two or more wavelength ranges, e.g., white and non-Red, which projects light towards a cervix of a patient. Also includes two or more discrete magnification level paths situated within the housing that pass light reflected from the cervix to the eyepiece when a selected magnification level path is selected by an operator and asserted by a controller. The controller is coupled with the at least one illuminator and the two or more discrete magnification level paths and accepts user gestures via user interface elements to select illumination and magnification settings, wherein the user interface elements may be operated with the hand of the operator that supports the apparatus.
