A Plentiful Lineup for Precise Diagnosis and
Reliable Treatment
Retrieval basket
It was in the 1960s that the first biopsy forceps were developed in order to retrieve tissue samples from within the body when diseased areas were discovered endoscopically, so as to study them under the microscope to see if they were benign or malignant. This was also the beginning of the development of endo-therapy products.
Endo-therapy products are a multifarious family with approximately 500 members and a wide range of uses, including such devices as coagulation electrodes, injection needles, sphincterotomes, mechanical lithotriptors, polypectomy snares, etc. Endoscopic techniques like EMR (Endoscopic Mucosal Resection) for the removal of early-stage tumors from membranes are spreading at a remarkable pace, and it goes without saying that this kind of medical evolution greatly reduces the surgical strain on many patients.

Concurrent Engineering
Concurrent Engineering
With the increasingly widespread use of endoscopic devices in recent years our design engineers and production engineers are actively working together. We consider it extremely important to reflect the opinions and requests of the doctors and nurses who are actually using this equipment in the field, in order to develop products that are even speedier, preciser and easier to use. This kind of unified development and manufacture, so-called concurrent engineering, is now a must in our company.
