Description
The present invention is to provide an endoscopic system. And more particularly, to an endoscope system and a method of driving the endoscope system that are easy to secure a treatment space and a field of view.
Techniques for inspecting the internal state of the body without losing it have a long history. Recently, various technologies such as X-ray, MRI, and CT have been developed due to the development of electronic technology. However, the above technologies are technologies for diagnosing the inside of the body by converting electromagnetic phenomena indirectly into images, and the accuracy is lower than that of observing directly by visual observation.
Endoscopic techniques have been developed to create a visual image directly by inserting an elongated instrument into the body cavity. Endoscopy is widely used because of its ability to directly observe the state in the body cavity.
Because of the advantage that the endoscope can be inserted into the body cavity without losing it, a technique has been developed for diagnosing the body cavity and performing the procedure simultaneously by attaching a surgical instrument to the endoscope.
However, unlike laparotomy, it is difficult to obtain an arbitrary treatment space when performing the operation in the body cavity. In addition, there arises a problem that the visual field of the endoscope is blurred due to bleeding occurring during the procedure.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an endoscope system that is easy to secure a treatment space and a visual field.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a method of driving an endoscope system as described above.
In order to solve the above problems, the endoscope system of the present invention includes a surgical endoscope, an endoscope guide tube, a pocket, a fluid delivery tube, and a fluid inlet. The surgical endoscope includes a camera for generating a video signal. The endoscope guide tube is connected to the endoscope at one end and inserted into the inside of the object, and the other end is disposed outside the subject, and guides the endoscope to the inside of the object. The pockets are disposed in the periphery of the endoscope and expand / contract according to infusion / discharge of fluid. And is disposed along the endoscope guiding tube and connected to the pocket to inject / discharge the fluid. The fluid injection port is connected to the fluid transfer tube and disposed outside the object to inject / discharge the fluid into the fluid transfer tube.
In one embodiment, the pocket may comprise a transparent material.
In one embodiment, the pockets may further include a plurality of the fluid transfer tubes and the plurality of fluid inlets corresponding to the plurality of pockets, the plurality of pockets being disposed along the periphery of the endoscope.
In one embodiment, the pockets can be inflated / deflated independently.
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an endoscopic system comprising: a surgical endoscope including a camera for generating an image signal and a surgical tool for working inside the object; An endoscope guiding tube connected to the endoscope at one end and inserted into the inside of the object, the other end being disposed outside the object, and guiding the endoscope to the inside of the object; A plurality of pockets disposed in the periphery of the endoscope and expanding / retracting in accordance with fluid injection / discharge; A plurality of fluid delivery tubes disposed along the endoscope guiding tube and connected to the pockets to inject / discharge the fluid; And a plurality of fluid inlets, respectively connected to the fluid transfer tubes and disposed outside the object, for injecting / discharging the fluid into / from the fluid transfer tubes. In the method of driving the endoscope system, first, the procedure endoscope and the pockets are inserted into an object. The fluids are then separately injected / discharged through the fluid injection ports to inflate / deflate the pockets individually. Thereafter, when the position of the treatment endoscope does not reach the treatment position, the step of separately injecting / discharging the fluid is repeated to reach the position of the treatment endoscope to the treatment position. Subsequently, when the position of the procedure endoscope reaches the procedure position, the procedure is performed inside the object using the procedure tool.
As described above, according to the present invention, the endoscope system includes the pockets disposed at the distal end thereof, so that it is easy to secure the view of the procedure endoscope and to secure the procedure space. In addition, since the fluid inside the pockets and the pockets is transparent, even if the pockets are disposed on the front surface of the endoscope, it is easy to secure a view. Pockets and fluids are harmless to humans, including biocompatible materials.
Moreover, it is possible to secure a better view by the hemostatic effect by the pressure by the pockets, and emergency hemostasis is possible in an unexpected situation.
Also, when injecting a fluid with low temperature, the heat generated by the endoscope is cooled to increase the operation time.
Furthermore, the fluid injection ports can be driven separately to individually control the amount of fluid injected into the pockets. Therefore, it is possible to arbitrarily change the treatment position by adjusting the position of the distal end portion.
Also, the pockets are fixed to the surrounding tissues and the position of the distal end is fixed. Therefore, it is possible to perform a stable operation with the distal end being stably fixed.
