peripheral bronchial branches with
videoscope-equivalent quality
Combining the superior image quality of video with the versatility of fiberoptics, the~
Olympus BF TYPE XP160F otters unprecedented access to the farthest recesses of
the peripheral bronchi -an area previously accessible only with a fiberscope. With
an ultra-slim insertion tube measuring a mere 2.8 mm in diameter, this innovative
"hybrid" scope boasts a surprisingly large 1.2 mm diameter instrument channel and
high-quality video images that will set a new standard for bronchoscopy in the
peripheral lung .

Built-in CCD in the control section

We call the BF-XP160F a "hybrid scope" for good reason -its innovative design takes advantage of both video
and fiberoptic technologies. Because the CCD is built into the control section, the BF-XP160F is able to take
advantage of video technology to deliver images
that are much sharper and clearer than could be
obtained with a fiberscope. At the same time, this
unique scope's fiberoptic technology makes
possible an insertion tube that's just as slim as the
slimmest fiberscopes and can be inserted into
areas where previously only they could go.

Larger image size than fiberscopes

The image size on the monitor is significantly BF-XP40
larger than that of a fiberscope, making images
easier to observe. Images are much brighter as
well. There's no need to adjust the focus and the
automatic light adjustment (average light metering)
system is fast and responsive, ensuring clear, high-
quality images with minimum halation.

Improved scope maneuverability

By incorporating the CCD into the control section, we were able to make the
scope much lighter -in fact, it's about half the weight of a fiberscope with an
OVC video converter mounted on its eyepiece. An advanced, ergonomic design
makes the control section easier to handle and helps to reduce operator fatigue.

Unparalleled bronchoscopic insertion performance

While the ultra-slim 2.8 mm insertion tube on its own improves insertion characteristics significantly, the BF-
XP160F features other refinements such as a
smaller bending radius and greater resistance to
warping than a comparable fiberscope. This
further improves insertion characteristics in the
peripheral bronchi and provides better torque
capability.

Compatible with a variety 1.2 mm

endo-therapy accessories
In spite of its ultra-slim design, the BF-XP160F
incorporates a 1.2 mm diameter channel that
can accommodate a variety of endo-therapy
accessories including a cytology brush with a

.
cover sheath. Adequate suction performance can
also be obtained.
