■ Lower gastrointestinal endoscope “EC-L600MP7”
This is a lower gastrointestinal endoscope for the LASEREO series of endoscopy systems, using two lasers with different wavelengths as a light source. The insertion tube measures just 11.1mm in outer diameter at the end, but still features a 3.2mm working channel as well as the water-jet function for flushing mucus in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby boosting body fluid suction performance and the operational performance of biopsy forceps and other tools. The flexibility adjustment function adjusts insertion tube’s flexibility by rotating the Flexibility Adjustment Ring, allowing users to select an appropriate level of tube flexibility to suit intestinal bending and shape. Furthermore, the advanced-tracking insertion tube uses materials with a high level of elasticity*5 to accurately convey grip force to the tube end. When combined with the Curve Tracking Technology, which bends the tube smoothly along curvature of intestinal walls and restores its straight shape after passing a curved section, this endoscope facilitates smooth insertion into the colon, which is difficult to perform endoscopy on because of numerous bends.

■ Dry laser imager “DRYPIX EDGE”
This high-function dry imager outputs medical images for use at hospitals, into film at high speed and with premium image quality. It offers the gradation control function to optimize images for various tests including CR*6, DR*7, CT and MRI. Since Fujifilm’s image process technology is used to identify text areas and image areas within each image precisely, sharpness can be adjusted in broad range to produce images that suit the purposes. The imager also supports high-resolution recording for mammography.
It takes just 85 seconds to print for a high throughput of 110 films (14′ x 17′) per hour. The compact yet high-speed model contributes to streamlining hospital workflow. This product is also environmentally-friendly with the use of water-based coating technology and energy-saving mode.
*6 Stands for “Computed Radiography,” which reads X-ray image information, recorded in an imaging plate, and recompiles it into X-ray transparency by applying optimum digital imaging processing to suit diagnostic purposes.
*7 Stands for “Digital Radiography,” which converts X-ray energy into electric signals and recompiles them into X-ray transparency
■ Diagnostic test system for infectious diseases “FUJI DRI-CHEM IMMUNO AG2”
This is a diagnostic test system for infectious diseases, examining samples and automatically detecting the presence of viruses or bacteria that cause influenza, mycoplasma pneumonia, and others. The device uses a dedicated reagent kit based on the silver amplification principle of photographic development to detect viruses and bacteria at a high level of sensitivity. The system also has a built-in barcode reader for scanning ID on the label of specimen receptacles and operators’ ID card, so as to help streamline the testing process. The device is designed in space-saving vertical form, measuring just 110mm wide. Test’s progress status and result are displayed on the highly visible color LCD touchscreen panel at the front face of the unit. The display flashes and the unit sounds an alarm upon completion of test to eliminate the need of time management, and testers are always aware of test progress even if they are away from the unit.
Approved uses of products vary by country and region.
