Abstract: A system for imaging and examination of a cervix, comprising a control module connectable with a changeable head configured to image the cervix and collect a tissue biopsy, the head selected from a group consisting of a digital colposcope module, a transvaginal optical probe module and an endo-cervical endoscope module. The system may additionally comprise light source(s) to illuminate cervix tissue; sensing device(s) to generate signal(s) from light and/or to acquire image(s) of a portion of a cervix; and processor(s) in communication with the sensing device(s). The system is configured to: (i) analyze the signal(s); (ii) detect the size of the cervix; (iii) determine parameters defining properties of the cervix; (iv) determine and distinguish normal tissue from abnormal tissue within the cervix; (v) determine the location of area(s) of abnormal tissue in the cervix; and (vi) generate a panoramic view of the cervix.

Abstract: A device for diagnosing a tissue is insertable into a patient's cavity. The device includes: (a) a housing; (b) sensors configured for diagnosing tissues within the cavity; (c) light sources having emission spectrum effective for diagnosing the tissue within the cavity; (d) a manipulating element for manipulating the light sources and sensors; (e) at least one display configured for presenting data obtained by the sensors. The manipulating element includes a first member rotatable within the housing around a first axis and a second member rotatable within the first member around a second axis. The second axis is parallel displaced relative to the first axis. The first and second rotatable members are mounted flush with each other and form a front surface, which carries the light sources and sensors facing the tissue to be diagnosed.

Abstract: A tissue diagnosis apparatus constituted of: a broad band light source arranged to irradiate a target area with broad band light; a narrow band light source arranged to irradiate the target area with narrow band light; at least one light sensor arranged to: sense the broad and narrow band light after interaction with the target area; a color sensor arranged to sense the broad band light after interaction with the target area; and a housing, the broad band light source, narrow band light source, light sensor and color sensor situated within the housing, wherein a control circuitry is arranged to: determine the image abnormality of the sensed broad band light, the spatial scattering of the sensed narrow band light and the chromatic impact of the interaction of the broad band light with the target area; and output a signal responsive to the identified image abnormality, spatial scattering and chromatic impact.
