MISSISSAUGA, ON, Feb. 22, 2023 /CNW/ -- PENTAX Medical Canada Inc., a division of HOYA Group, has obtained Health Canada licenses for two of its latest innovations; PENTAX Medical INSPIRA™, a new premium video processor and the i20c video endoscope series. Developed with a focus on the needs of healthcare providers, the new video processor maintains compatibility with PENTAX Medical's current endoscope models[1] and sets new standards in combination with the new i20c video endoscope generation.
Optimum image quality
The PENTAX Medical INSPIRA™ video processor delivers exceptional image quality with any PENTAX Medical endoscope[2]. Equipped with two connection types, it allows for upgrading the legacy endoscopy portfolio[1] to the latest imaging standards. This intelligent feature extends the lifecycle of each endoscope for greater sustainability and economic savings while continuing to meet the highest standards of modern imaging and visualization.
Enhanced user experience
The PENTAX Medical INSPIRA™ video processor combines cutting-edge functionality in one plug-and-play solution with intuitive usability. It is controlled via a customizable, state-of-the-art touch panel equipped with innovative image enhancement functionalities and 4K image processing. This ultimately enables physicians to focus on what is important, achieving optimal clinical outcomes.
Next-generation endoscopes with superior ergonomics
The unique control body of the i20c endoscopes is designed with enhanced ergonomics and exceptional imaging for the highest quality procedures. As a result, physicians instantly benefit from outstanding maneuverability, angulation, and handling. In addition, the novel design of the lightweight connector of the i20c video endoscopes further optimizes the endoscopic workflow allowing for more efficient reprocessing.
David Harrison, Chief Commercial Officer, PENTAX Medical Americas, comments: "The PENTAX Medical INSPIRA™ video processor is a milestone for endoscopy in Canada. This future-proof platform, with its ability to upgrade legacy endoscopes' imaging capabilities from different generations, provide our customers with the economic flexibility and image quality they need to improve patient care. When combined with our new i20c endoscopes, PENTAX Medical elevates image quality and handling to the next level in endoscopy."
