An end of the first chamber remote from the piston chamber is provided with a first opening allowing entry of the piston, and during installation, the piston enters the first chamber by the first opening and enters the piston chamber after passing through the first chamber, and meanwhile, the first chamber is configured to be in a clearance fit with the piston, such that the size of the first chamber is larger than that of the piston.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a connecting device and an endoscope assembly, and belongs to the technical field of medical instruments. A body of the connecting device includes a connecting portion via which a first endoscope may be connected and fixed. A side of the body opposite to the connecting portion is provided with a receiving groove for directly receiving a second endoscope therein to facilitate a connection and fixation of the second endoscope. Meanwhile, a connecting component for engaging the second endoscope is provided on the body, so that the second endoscope may be fixed within the receiving groove, thereby achieving a connection between the first endoscope and the second endoscope, facilitating assembly and disassembly thereof, and also improving a stability of connection, which is convenient for physicians to operate.

Abstract: Disclosed are an anchoring device and an anchoring apparatus. The anchoring device includes a coupling member and two anchoring members. The two anchoring members are arranged on the coupling member at intervals in a first direction. A dimension of the anchoring member in a second direction is a first dimension, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The anchoring member is configured to switch between a first configuration and a second configuration. When the anchoring member is in the first configuration, a dimension of the anchoring member in a direction perpendicular to the first direction is a second dimension. When the anchoring member is in the second configuration, a dimension of the anchoring member in the second direction is a third dimension, and the third dimension is greater than the second dimension and the first dimension.

Abstract: A slide slot type multi-arm clamp includes a handle, a catheter, a clamping portion, a spring tube and a control line. In practical applications, a surgical operator applies an axial thrust and a pulling force to the handle to drive the control line to move, so as to open/close and lock the clamping portion. Moreover, side clamp arms and a clamp base in the clamping portion can be easily separated from the catheter or the spring tube to stay in a human body so as to achieve the functions of hemostasis and tissue suture. The side slot type multi-arm clamp can achieve the effect of minimizing the length of the instrument retained in the human body by the cooperation between the side clamp arms and the clamp base.

Abstract: A tissue clamping and closing device for passing through an endoscope, including: a clamp having at least two clamp legs; a control line separably connected to a through hole at the proximal end of the clamp; an axial sheath arranged around the control line; a sleeve configured to accommodate the proximal end portion of the clamp and separably connected to the distal end of the axial sheath; a retainer configured to retain a connection between the sleeve and the axial sheath and implement the separation of the sleeve from the axial sheath through the deformation of the retainer under the action of the control line a control mechanism connected to the proximal end of the axial sheath and the proximal end of the control line; wherein the control line can control the at least two clamp legs of the clamp to be opened or closed through the control mechanism.

Abstract: A device and method for catching a biological specimen removed from an individual. The device includes at least an inlet channel; an outlet channel; a main chamber having an interior wall and an exterior wall, wherein the main chamber is in fluid communication with the inlet channel and is in fluid communication with the outlet channel; and a receiving structure attached to at least a portion of the interior wall or the exterior wall of the main chamber and positioned such that it does not obstruct either the inlet channel or the outlet channel, wherein the receiving structure is further configured to receive a light emitting body for illuminating the main chamber of the device before catching the biological specimen removed from an individual. The device is connected to a medical scope and a vacuum system. When the device is placed under suction, the biological specimen is extracted and trapped on the removable filter of the device.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an achromatic endoscope which employs a diffractive microlens. Along with a broadband rotary joint and a custom 800 nm SD-OCT system, ultrahigh-resolution 3D volumetric imaging over a large area becomes possible. The diffractive microlens can be used directly with a GRIN lens, making the endoscope design simpler and cost effective. Preliminary ex vivo 3D intraluminal imaging was performed with the endoscope in conjunction with a home-built broadband rotary joint and a spectral-domain OCT system, demonstrating the performance of the diffractive endoscope. Considering the miniature OCT imaging probe is the required component for using the OCT technology in internal organs, the proposed approach will have a broad impact on endoscopic OCT imaging by improving OCT resolution in any applications that involve a miniature OCT probe, as intravascular OCT imaging, gastrointestinal (GI) tract imaging, airway imaging etc.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method for real-time characterization of spatially-resolved tissue optical properties using OCT/LCI. Imaging data are acquired, processed, displayed and stored in real-time. The resultant tissue optical properties are then used to determine the diagnostic threshold and to determine the OCT/LCI detection sensitivity and specificity. Color-coded optical property maps are constructed to provide direct visual cues for surgeons to differentiate tumor versus non-tumor tissue. These optical property maps can be overlaid with the structural imaging data and/or Doppler results for efficient data display. Finally, the imaging system can also be integrated with existing systems such as tracking and surgical microscopes. An aiming beam is generally provided for interventional guidance. For intraoperative use, a cap/spacer may also be provided to maintain the working distance of the probe, and also to provide biopsy capabilities.
