ENDOSCOPIC IMAGING SYSTEM
An endoscopic imaging system includes a reusable control cabinet having a number of actuators that control the orientation of a lightweight endoscope that is connectable thereto. The endoscope is used with a single patient and is then disposed. The endoscope includes an illumination mechanism, an image sensor and an elongate shaft having one or more lumens located therein. A polymeric articulation joint at the distal end of the endoscope allows the distal end to be oriented by the control cabinet. The endoscope is coated with a hydrophilic coating that reduces its coefficient of friction and because it is lightweight, requires less force to advance it to a desired location within a patient.
Latest Boston Scientific Scimed, Inc. Patents:
This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/406,149, filed Apr. 1, 2003, the disclosure of which is expressly incorporated herein by reference.
FIELD OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates to medical devices in general and therapeutic and diagnostic endoscopes in particular.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONAs an aid to the early detection of disease, it has become well established that there are major public health benefits from regular endoscopic examinations of internal structures such as the esophagus, lungs, colon, uterus, and other organ systems. A conventional imaging endoscope used for such procedures comprises a flexible tube with a fiber optic light guide that directs illuminating light from an external light source through a lens at the distal end of the endoscope which focuses the illumination on the tissue to be examined. An objective lens and fiber optic imaging light guide communicating with a camera at the proximal end of the scope, or an imaging camera chip at the distal tip, transmit an image to the examiner. In addition, most endoscopes include one or more working channels through which medical devices such as biopsy forceps, snares, fulguration probes, and other tools may be passed.
Navigation of the endoscope through complex and tortuous paths is critical to success of the examination with minimum pain, side effects, risk or sedation to the patient. To this end, modern endoscopes include means for deflecting the distal tip of the scope to follow the pathway of the structure under examination, with minimum deflection or friction force upon the surrounding tissue. Control cables similar to puppet strings are carried within the endoscope body and connect a flexible portion of the distal end to a set of control knobs at the proximal endoscope handle. By manipulating the control knobs, the examiner is usually able to steer the endoscope during insertion and direct it to the region of interest, in spite of the limitations of such traditional control systems, which are clumsy, non-intuitive, and friction-limited. Common operator complaints about traditional endoscopes include their limited flexibility, limited column strength, and limited operator control of stiffness along the scope length.
Conventional endoscopes are expensive medical devices costing in the range of $25,000 for an endoscope, and much more for the associated operator console. Because of the expense, these endoscopes are built to withstand repeated disinfections and use upon many patients. Conventional endoscopes are generally built of sturdy materials, which decreases the flexibility of the scope and thus can decrease patient comfort. Furthermore, conventional endoscopes are complex and fragile instruments which can frequently need expensive repair as a result of damage during use or during a disinfection procedure. To overcome these and other problems, there is a need for a low cost imaging endoscope that can be used for a single procedure and thrown away. The scope should have better navigation and tracking, a superior interface with the operator, improved access by reduced frictional forces upon the lumenal tissue, increased patient comfort, and greater clinical productivity and patient throughput than those that are currently available.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONTo address these and other problems in the prior art, the present invention is an endoscopic video imaging system. The system includes a motion control cabinet that includes a number of actuators that control the orientation of an endoscope and an imaging system to produce images of tissue collected by an image sensor at the distal end of the endoscope. A single use endoscope is connectable with the control cabinet and used to examine a patient. After the examination procedure, the endoscope is disconnected and disposed of.
The endoscope of the present invention includes a flexible elongate tube or shaft and an illumination source that directs light onto a tissue sample. An image sensor and objective lens at or adjacent the distal end of the endoscope captures reflected light to produce an image of the illuminated tissue. Images produced by the sensor are transmitted to a display device to be viewed by an examiner. In one embodiment, the illumination source comprises one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) and the image sensor comprises a CMOS solid state image sensor.
The endoscope of the present invention also includes a steering mechanism such as a number of tensile control cables, which allow the distal end of the endoscope to be deflected in a desired direction. In one embodiment of the invention, a proximal end of the tensile control cables communicates with actuators within the control cabinet. A freestanding joystick controller generates electrical control signals which the control cabinet uses to compute signals to drive the actuators that orient the distal end of the endoscope in the direction desired by the examiner. In another embodiment of the invention, the distal end of the endoscope is automatically steered, or provided to the examiner, based on analysis of images from the image sensor.
In one embodiment of the invention, the endoscope includes a polymeric articulation joint adjacent its distal end that aids in bending the distal end of the scope in a desired direction. The articulation joint is constructed as a number of live hinges integrated into a unified structure of the required overall properties and dimensions. Tension of the control cables causes the live hinges of the articulation joint to deflect, thereby bending the distal tip of the endoscope. In one embodiment of the invention, the articulation joint exerts a restoring force such that upon release of a tensioning force, the distal end of the scope will straighten.
In an alternative embodiment, the articulation joint comprises a number of stacked discs that rotate with respect to one another. Control cables pass through the discs and pull adjacent discs together to turn the distal end of the endoscope.
In another embodiment of the invention, the endoscope has a variation in stiffness along its length that allows the distal end to be relatively flexible while the more proximal regions of the scope have increased column strength and torque fidelity so that a physician can twist and advance the endoscope with greater ease and accuracy and with fewer false advances (“loops”). Variation in stiffness along the length can be provided by varying the durometer of materials that comprise a shaft of the endoscope. Operator-controlled, variable stiffness can be provided by control cables that can be tightened or loosened to adjust the stiffness of the shaft. In yet another embodiment, the spacing between the live hinges of the articulation joint is selected to provide a variation in stiffness along the length of the articulation joint.
In yet another embodiment of the invention, the endoscope is covered with a retractable sleeve that uncovers the distal end of the scope during use and extends over the distal end after the scope is removed from a patient.
In another embodiment of the invention, the scope is coated with a hydrophilic coating to reduce its coefficient of friction.
In another embodiment of the invention, the scope is retractable in a longitudinal direction. The distal end of the scope is extendable using a spring, pull wires, bellows or the like to allow a physician to move the distal tip without having to alter the position of the shaft of the endoscope.
In yet another embodiment of the invention, the endoscope includes a heat dissipating mechanism for removing heat produced by the illumination source and image sensor.
The foregoing aspects and many of the attendant advantages of this invention will become more readily appreciated as the same become better understood by reference to the following detailed description, when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
As indicated above, the present invention is an endoscopic video imaging system that allows a physician to view internal body cavities of a patient as well as to insert surgical instruments into the patient's body. An imaging endoscope used with the present invention is sufficiently inexpensive to manufacture such that the endoscope can be considered a disposable item.
As shown in
In the embodiment shown, the imaging endoscope 20 also includes a breakout box 26 that is positioned approximately midway along the length of the endoscope. The breakout box 26 provides an attachment point for a vacuum bottle 40 that collects liquids from a lumen within the imaging endoscope. The vacuum bottle 40 is controlled by a vacuum valve 28 that is positioned on the breakout box 26. Alternatively, the valve can be positioned within the motion control cabinet 50 and controlled from the handheld controller 80.
If desired, the handheld controller 80 can be secured to the breakout box 26 such that the two units can be moved as one if desired. Upon completion of a patient examination procedure, the imaging endoscope 20 is disconnected from the motion control cabinet 50 and disposed of. A new imaging endoscope 20 is then connected to the motion control cabinet 50 for the next examination procedure to be performed.
The embodiment shown in
As discussed above, the endoscope 20, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, has a higher torque shaft at the distal section of the endoscope and a lower torque shaft at its proximal end. The breakout box 26 positioned along the length of the endoscope shaft can be used as a handle or gripper to impart rotation of the distal end of the endoscope during a medical examination procedure. The higher torque portion of the shaft transfers rotational motion that is imparted at a location proximal to the distal tip in order to guide the distal tip of the imaging catheter. The low torque shaft portion of the imaging catheter does not transfer torque as well and can twist when rotational motion is applied.
In use, the physician can insert a medical device such as a biopsy forceps, snare, etc., into a connector 32 found on the breakout box 26 that leads to a working channel lumen in the endoscope. In alternate embodiments, the entrance to the working channel lumen may be positioned further towards the proximal end of the endoscope.
Also included in the motion control cabinet 50 is a power source 58 that provides electrical power to a light source such as a number of light emitting diodes (LEDs) at the distal end 22 of the imaging endoscope. Alternatively, if the imaging catheter utilizes an external light source, then the motion control cabinet can include a high intensity light source such as a laser or Xenon white light source that supplies light to a fiber optic illumination guide within the imaging endoscope 20 in order to illuminate an internal body organ. The power source 58 may be controlled by control signals received from the handheld controller 80 when the user desires to activate the light source.
An imaging electronics board 60 captures images received from an image sensor (not shown) at the distal end of the imaging endoscope. The imaging electronics board 60 can enhance the images received or can provide video effects such as zoom, color changes, highlighting, etc., prior to display of the images on a video display (not shown). Images of the tissue may also be analyzed by the imaging electronics board 60 to produce control signals that are supplied to the servo motor controller 54 in order to automatically steer the distal tip of the endoscope as will be discussed in further detail below. Images produced by the imaging electronics board 60 may also be printed on a digital printer, saved to a computer readable media such as a floppy disk, CD, DVD, etc., or a video tape for later retrieval and analysis by a physician.
Finally, the motion control cabinet 50 includes valves 70 that control the delivery of insufflation air/gas to insufflate a patient's body cavity and an irrigation liquid to flush out a body cavity and/or clean the imaging light source and image sensor at the distal end of the endoscope. The insufflation air/gas and irrigation liquid are connected to the imaging catheter via a connector 38 that connects to an irrigation/insufflation lumen of the imaging endoscope 20. In one embodiment of the invention, the irrigation and insufflation lumen are the same lumen in the imaging catheter. However, it will be appreciated that separate irrigation and insufflation lumens could be provided if desired and if space in the endoscope permits.
Upon insertion of the shaft 57 into the spool 79, the brake 81 is released, thereby allowing the spool 79 to be moved by rotation of the cylinder 59. In some instances, the brake 81 may be omitted, thereby allowing the spools 79 to freely rotate when the connector 34 is not engaged with the motion control cabinet 50.
Positioned in an ergonomic arrangement on the handheld controller 80 are a number of electrical switches. An articulation joystick 88 or other multi-positional device can be moved in a number of positions to allow the physician to orient the distal tip of the imaging endoscope in a desired direction. In order to guide the imaging endoscope manually, the physician moves the joystick 88 while watching an image on a video monitor or by viewing the position of the distal tip with another medial imaging technique such as fluoroscopy. As the distal tip of the endoscope is steered by moving the joystick 88 in the desired direction, the physician can push, pull and/or twist the endoscope to guide the distal tip in the desired direction.
A camera button 90 is provided to capture an image of an internal body cavity or organ in which the imaging endoscope 20 is placed. The images collected may be still images or video images. The images may be adjusted for contrast or otherwise enhanced prior to display or storage on a recordable media.
An irrigation button 92 activates an irrigation source to supply a liquid such as water through an irrigation lumen of the imaging endoscope. The liquid serves to clean an image sensor and the light source at the distal end of the endoscope as well as an area of the body cavity. An insufflation button 94 is provided to activate the insufflation source within the motion control cabinet 50 to supply air/gas through a lumen of the catheter. The supply of the insufflation gas expands portions of the body cavity around the distal tip of the endoscope so that the physician can more easily advance the endoscope or better see the tissue in front of the endoscope.
In one embodiment of the invention, the handle 82 also includes a thumb screw 96 for securing the handheld controller 80 to the breakout box 26 as indicated above. A corresponding set of threads on a breakout box 26 receive the thumb screw 96 in order to join the two parts together. One or more additional buttons 98 may also be provided to activate additional functions such as recording or printing images, adjusting light intensity, activating a vacuum control valve, etc., if desired.
The endoscope of the present invention may also be steered automatically. Images received by the imaging electronics 60 are analyzed by a programmed processor to determine a desired direction or orientation of the distal tip of the endoscope. In the case of a colonoscopy, where the endoscope is advanced to the cecum, the processor controls the delivery of insufflation air/gas to inflate the colon, the processor then analyzes the image of the colon for a dark spot that generally marks the direction in which the scope is to be advanced. The processor then supplies control instructions to the servo controller 54 such that the distal tip is oriented in the direction of the dark spot located.
In other modes, a processor in the motion control cabinet causes the distal tip of the endoscope to move in a predefined pattern. For example, as the scope is being withdrawn, the distal tip may be caused to move in a search pattern such that all areas of a body cavity are scanned for the presence of disease. By using the automatic control of the distal tip, a physician only has to advance or retract the scope to perform an examination.
As will be described in further detail below, the imaging endoscope 20 generally comprises a hollow shaft having one or more lumens formed of polyethylene tubes which terminate at the distal tip 22. As shown in
Fitted within the camera port 116 is an image sensor (not shown) that preferably comprises a CMOS imaging sensor or other solid state device and one or more glass or polymeric lenses that produce electronic signals representative of an image of the tissue in front of the camera port 116. The image sensor is preferably a low light sensitive, low noise video VGA, CMOS, color imager or higher resolution sensor such as SVGA, SXGA, or XGA. The video output of the sensor may be in any conventional format including PAL, NTSC or high definition video format.
The illumination port 118 houses one or more lenses and one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) (not shown). The LEDs may be high intensity white light sources or may comprise colored light sources such as red, green and blue LEDs. With colored LEDs, images in different spectral bands may be obtained due to illumination with any one or more individual colors. White light images may be obtained by the simultaneous or sequential illumination of the colored LEDs and combining individual color images. As an alternative to LEDs, the light source may be external to the endoscope and the illumination light delivered to the illumination port with a fiber optic bundle.
The access port 120 is the termination point of the working channel or lumen of the endoscope 20. In the embodiment described above, the proximal end of the working channel terminates at the breakout box 26 as shown in
The directional flush port 122 includes a cap 124 that directs liquid supplied through an irrigation and insufflation lumen across the front face of the distal tip 110 in the direction of the camera port 116 and/or the illumination port 118. The cap 124 thereby serves to clean the camera port 116 and the illumination port 118 for a better view of the internal body cavity in which the imaging catheter is placed. In addition, the flushing liquid cleans an area of tissue surrounding the distal end of the endoscope.
The control cables 130 that move the distal tip of the endoscope are preferably made of a non-stretching material such as stainless steel or a highly oriented polyethylene-theralate (PET) string. The control cables may be routed within a center lumen of the shaft 128 or, as shown in
If the control cables are routed through the center lumen of the shaft 128, the cables are preferably carried in stainless steel or plastic spiral wrapped lumens to prevent binding and a transition guide 140 such as that as shown in
A plastic spiral wrap 166 such as spiral wire wrap available from Panduit Inc. is inserted into a lumen of the cover 162. The spiral wrap 166 prevents the shaft 160 from crushing as it is bent around a patient's anatomy.
In one embodiment of the shaft 160, the spiral wrap has a thickness of 0.060 inches and a pitch of 3/16 inch. However, it will be appreciated that other thicknesses of spiral wrap with a different pitch could be used to provide the desired column strength and bend modulus as well as to prevent kinking.
The proximal end 170 of the shaft 160 has a single spiral of wire 176 that is preferably wound in the same direction as the plastic spiral wrap 166 in the center lumen of the shaft 160. Again, the torque fidelity of the proximal end of the shaft 170 can be adjusted by adjusting the pitch and/or direction of the wire 176 and its flexibility.
As will be appreciated, the single wire spiral 176 provides some torque fidelity but does have the same torque fidelity as the dual wire braid in the distal section of the shaft. The single wire spiral 176 may be omitted from the proximal portion of the shaft if even less torque fidelity is desired.
In order to facilitate steering the distal tip of imaging endoscope, the endoscope includes an articulation joint that allows the distal tip to be turned back on itself, i.e., over an arc of 180 degrees, by the control cables. As shown
To facilitate bending of the articulation joint, the cylinder includes a number of live hinges 220 formed along its length. As can be seen in
Upon retraction of a control cable, those live hinges having webs 232 that are in line with the retracting control cable do not bend. Those live hinges having webs that are not in line with the control cable will be closed, thereby bending the articulation joint in the direction of the control cable under tension.
Another advantage of the articulation joint shown in
The articulation joint can be formed by extruding a cylinder with the central and control cable lumens in place and cutting the cylinder tube with a knife, laser, water jet, or other material removal mechanism to form the live hinges. Alternatively, the articulation joint can be molded with the live hinge joints in place. As will be appreciated, the angles of the V-shaped cuts that form the hinges may be uniform or may vary along the length of the articulation joint. Similarly, the distance between adjacent live hinges may be uniform or may vary in order to tailor the bending and torque fidelity characteristics of the articulation joint. In one embodiment of the invention, each live hinge has a closing angle of 30° so that six hinges are required to provide 180° of movement. The distal end of the articulation joint 200 may be counter-bored to receive the distal tip section 110 of the endoscope, as discussed above. Similarly, the proximal end of the articulation joint 200 is adapted to receive the distal end of the shaft of the endoscope. In the embodiment shown in
To prevent wear by the control cables as they are pulled by the actuation mechanism in the motion control cabinet, it may be desirable to produce the articulation joint from a material having areas of different durometers. As shown in
Each socket section can be formed with a fully formed ball section such as ball section 300 shown in
In another embodiment of an articulation joint, the joint is made of a series of stacked discs that are positioned adjacent one another and move with respect to each other. As shown in
Although the discs of the articulation joints shown in
In some environments, a full 180° turning radius of the distal tip of the imaging endoscope may not be necessary. In those environments, the articulation joint may be replaced with a flexible member such as a braided stent.
In some embodiments, the articulation joint is designed to exert a restoring force so that imaging endoscope will tend to straighten upon the release of tension from the control cables. In other cases, it may be desirable to maintain the position of the distal tip in a certain direction. In that case, a construction as shown in
During examination with the imaging endoscope, the physician may need to twist the scope in order to guide it in the desired direction. Because the outer surface of the scope is preferably coated with a lubricant and it is round, it can be difficult for the physician to maintain an adequate purchase on the shaft in order to rotate it. As such, the imaging endoscope of the present invention may include a gripper mechanism that aids the physician in grasping the shaft for either rotating it or moving the shaft longitudinally. One embodiment of a shaft gripping device is shown in
In one embodiment of the invention the endoscope has a movable sleeve that operates to keep the distal end of the endoscope clean prior to use and covers the end of the scope that was in contact with a patient after the scope has been used.
A collapsible sleeve 598 is positioned over the distal end of the endoscope and can be retracted to expose the lubricated distal tip of the probe. In one embodiment, the sleeve 598 is secured at its distal end to the sponge 594 and at its proximal end to the breakout box. Moving the sponge proximally retracts the sleeve so that the endoscope is ready for use. After a procedure, the sponge 594 is moved distally to extend the sleeve over the distal end of the endoscope. With the sleeve extended, any contaminants on the probe are less likely to contact the patient, the physician or staff performing the procedure.
In some instances, it may be desirable to limit the amount of heat that is dissipated at the distal end of the imaging endoscope. If light emitting diodes are used, they generate heat in the process of producing light for illumination. Similarly, the image sensor generates some heat during operation. In order to limit how hot the distal end of the endoscope may become and/or to provide for increased life for these components, it is necessary to dissipate the heat. One technique for doing so is to fashion a heat sink at the distal tip of the imaging endoscope. As shown in
In yet another embodiment of the invention, the imaging devices at the distal end of the endoscope can be cooled by air or water passed through a lumen to the end of the endoscope and vented outside the body. For example, air under pressure may be vented through an orifice near the imaging electronics. The expansion of the air lowers its temperature where it cools the imaging electronics. The warmed air is then forced to the proximal end of the endoscope through an exhaust lumen. Alternatively, the endoscope may include a water delivery lumen that delivers water to a heat exchanger at the distal tip. Water warmed by the electronic components in the distal tip is removed in a water return lumen.
Although the present endoscopic imaging system has many uses, it is particularly suited for performing colonoscopic examinations. In one embodiment, a 10-13 mm diameter prototype having a 0.060 inner spiral wrap with a pitch of ¼ inch and coated with a hydrophilic coating was found to have a coefficient of friction of 0.15 compared to 0.85 for conventional endoscopes. In addition, the endoscope of the present invention required 0.5 lbs. of force to push it through a 2-inch U-shaped bend where a conventional endoscope could not pass through such a tight bend. Therefore, the present invention allows colonoscopes to be made inexpensively and lightweight so that they are more comfortable for the patient due to their lower coefficient of friction and better trackability.
In addition to performing colonoscopies, the endoscopic imaging system of the present invention is also useful with a variety of surgical devices including: cannulas, guidewires, sphincterotomes, stone retrieval balloons, retrieval baskets, dilatation balloons, stents, cytology brushes, ligation devices, electrohemostasis devices, sclerotherapy needles, snares and biopsy forceps.
Cannulas are used with the endoscopic imaging system to cannulate the sphincter of Odi or papilla to gain access to the bile or pancreatic ducts. Guidewires can be delivered down the working channel of the endoscope and used as a rail to deliver a surgical device to an area of interest. Sphincterotomes are used to open the papilla in order to place a stent or remove a stone from a patient. Stone retrieval balloons are used along with a guidewire to pull a stone out of a bile duct. Retrieval baskets are also used to remove stones from a bile duct. Dilatation balloons are used to open up strictures in the gastrointestinal, urinary or pulmonary tracts. Stents are used to open up strictures in the GI, urinary or pulmonary tracts. Stents can be metal or plastic, self-expanding or mechanically expanded, and are normally delivered from the distal end of a catheter. Cytology brushes are used at the end of guidewires to collect cell samples. Ligation devices are used to ligate varices in the esophagus. Band ligators employ elastic bands to cinch varices. Electrohemostasis devices use electrical current to cauterize bleeding tissue in the GI tract. Sclerotherapy needles are used to inject coagulating or sealing solutions into varices. Snares are used to remove polyps from the GI tract, and biopsy forceps are used to collect tissue samples.
Examples of specific surgical procedures that can be treated with the endoscopic imaging system of the present invention include the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by the implantation of bulking agents, implants, fundoplication, tissue scarring, suturing, or replacement of valves or other techniques to aid in closure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES).
Another example of a surgical procedure is the treatment of morbid obesity by deploying implants or performing reduction surgery, gastric bypass and plication or creating tissue folds to help patients lose weight.
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) involves the removal of sessile polyps or flat lesions by filling them with saline or the like to lift them prior to resection. The endoscope of the present invention can be used to deliver needles, snares and biopsy forceps useful in performing this procedure.
In addition, the endoscopic imaging system of the present invention can be used to perform full-thickness resection (FTRD) in which a portion of a GI tract wall is excised and the wounds healed with staplers or fasteners. Finally, the endoscopic imaging system of the present invention can be used to deliver sclerosing agents to kill tissues or drug delivery agents to treat maladies of internal body tissues.
While the preferred embodiment of the invention has been illustrated and described, it will be appreciated that various changes can be made therein without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, although some of the disclosed embodiments use the pull wires to compress the length of the endoscope, it will be appreciated that other mechanisms such as dedicated wires could be used. Alternatively, a spring can be used to bias the endoscope distally and wires used to compress the spring thereby shortening the length of the endoscope. Therefore, the scope of the invention is to be determined from the following claims and equivalents thereof.
