The latest EVIS X1™ endoscopy system innovation is coming soon!
Olympus’ EZ1500 series endoscopes – the GIF-EZ1500 gastroscope and the CF-EZ1500DL/I colonoscope – recently received regulatory clearance. These endoscopes feature Extended Depth of Field (EDOF™) technology for a continuously sharp image with minimal focal adjustment,1 along with an ErgoGrip control section, and compatibility with TXI™, RDI™ and NBI™ technologies when connected to the EVIS X1 CV-1500 video system center.
EDOF technology creates an image in total focus by capturing near- and far-focused images simultaneously and combining them into one image with a wide depth of field. This technology allows the EZ1500 series scopes to provide closer-focused observation in near and normal modes, as well as higher magnification, than the GIF-HQ190 or the CF-HQ190L/I scope. EDOF technology provides the user with improved general observation of near-to-far distances without blurriness. It also allows them to obtain sharp images, which may aid in a physician’s detection and diagnosis in a procedure.1

The EVIS X1 endoscopy system is not designed for cardiac applications. Other combinations of equipment may cause ventricular fibrillation or seriously affect the cardiac function of the patient. Improper use of endoscopes may result in patient injury, infection, bleeding, and/or perforation. Complete indications, contraindications, warnings, and cautions are available in the Instructions for Use (IFU).
TXI, RDI and NBI technologies are not intended to replace histopathological sampling as a means of diagnosis.
