Olympus Model Number CF-Q260DL?
Re: "Description... Olympus XQ260 variable stiffness video colonoscope": It is more likely that this is an Olympus CF-Q260DL than an Olympus XQ260 for the following reasons:
- At https://www.olympus-europa.com/medical/en/medical_systems/hidden/download_jsp.jsp?link=/medical/rmt/media/content/content_1/documents_1/brochures_1/EVIS_LUCERA_GIF-XQ260__product_brochure_001_V1-en_GB_20000101.pdf, the Olympus XQ260 is described as a "Gastrointestinal Videoscope." Its working length is only 1030 mm, which is rather short for a colonoscope. The scope pictured is at least 1500 mm long.
- At https://www.olympus.co.uk/medical/en/medical_systems/hidden/download_jsp.jsp?link=/medical/rmt/media/content/content_1/documents_1/brochures_1/Evis_Lucera_GIF-260_Series__operation_manual_001_V1-en_GB_20000101.pdf, the company states "Use the EVIS LUCERA GASTROINTESTINAL VIDEOSCOPE... GIF-XQ260... for endoscopy and endoscopic surgery within the upper digestive tract (including the esophagus, stomach and duodenum)."
- Under the yellow triangle in the photo, the model number appears to be "CF-Q260DL." At https://www.olympus.co.uk/medical/en/medical_systems/hidden/download_jsp.jsp?link=/medical/rmt/media/content/content_1/documents_1/brochures_1/EVIS_LUCERA_CF-Q260DL_I__product_brochure_001_V1-en_GB_20000101.pdf, the Olympus CF-Q260DL/I is described as a colonovideoscope.
