Lighthouse Imaging Corp. has announced it now offers the L700, an external LED light source, as a companion product to its Endolume endoscope system light tester, according to a news release.
The L700, used in conjunction with the Endolume, enables biomedical engineers and technicians to test endoscope components in the service laboratory in place of the OR endoscopic light source for testing light guides and endoscope optical fibers.
"Endoscopic components are used and sterilized frequently, which can impact quality over time," said Mark Waite, Lighthouse Imaging CEO, in the release. "They need to be tested more frequently, in part to avoid wasting time and creating issues during patient procedures. Lighthouse Imaging's new light source complements our line of endoscopic testing equipment, and makes it easy and affordable to test light guides and scope fibers in the lab rather than in the operating room."
Lighthouse Imaging Corp. is headquartered in Portland, Maine.
