The 168 cm working length gives you the reach needed for complete colonic examination, including challenging cases where standard-length scopes fall short.
The 168 cm working length gives you the reach needed for complete colonic examination, including challenging cases where standard-length scopes fall short. That’s 20-30 cm more than typical colonoscopes, which matters when you’re navigating tortuous anatomy or need to reach the cecum in longer colons.
The 3.7 mm biopsy channel handles most therapeutic accessories while maintaining good suction capability. You’ll get clear visualization throughout the procedure, and the channel size accommodates standard biopsy forceps, snares, and injection needles without compromise.
The 12.9 mm insertion tube diameter keeps patient comfort reasonable despite the extended length. Bottom line: you get the reach advantages without moving up to a significantly larger scope that’s harder to advance.
