- With standards requiring visual inspection of all flexible endoscopes during processing, it’s important to recognize that every type of endoscope is a little bit different. In this video, Abby Smart, MPH will go over basic components of various models of endoscopes, including bronchoscopes, urology scopes, GI scopes, and specialty scopes.

I’m going for an interview to become a QC tech for endoscopes and this really helped me learn more about them. Thank you!
Best wishes.
Thanks so much
Informative video
I'm cssd & Endo technologist
I see gastroscope and duodenoscope but don’t the EGD scope cover all that?
For the BF-1TH190 Bronch scope @6:30. Is that a Stiffness/Tensioner dial or a Rotation Ring?
💯🤩👏👏👏
