The Olympus GF-UCT180 Curvilinear Array Ultrasound Gastrovideoscope is a state-of-the-art endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) instrument designed for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Its advanced imaging capabilities and ergonomic design make it ideal for use in hospitals, surgical centers, and gastroenterology clinics, providing accurate and reliable diagnostic information.

Overview

Equipped with a newly developed curved linear array transducer, the GF-UCT180 delivers high-resolution ultrasound images with greater imaging depth in B-mode. The incorporation of Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) technology enhances visualization of the mucosal surface. A redesigned forceps elevator provides more reliable control over endoscopic devices, while the slim 12.6 mm diameter insertion tube ensures smooth insertion. A detachable ultrasound cable facilitates easier handling, reprocessing, and storage, as well as ensuring system compatibility.
