Abstract: A medical system includes a shaft having a proximal end and a distal end, an imaging device at the distal end of the shaft, and a controller, the controller receives image data comprising pixel data from the imaging device, the pixel data including a plurality of individual pixel values, converts the pixel data from a RGB format to a YCbCr format, and forms adjusted pixel data by applying a gain to the pixel data, wherein the gain is based on a Y value, a Cb value, and a Cr value of the individual pixel values of the converted pixel data.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure may include a medical device comprising an elongate member and a handle assembly connected to the elongate member. The handle housing may house a steering mechanism movable relative to the handle assembly and configured to steer the elongate member along a first plane and a second plane different from the first plane, a camera system configured to capture images from a distal end of the elongate member, and an illumination system configured to provide illuminating light from the distal end of the elongate member.
