*'''Scope Guide:'''<br>[[Image:Scope.PNG|right|140px]] is an exclusive Olympus technology designed to provide a real-time 3D image of the shape and configuration of the colonoscope inside the body. ScopeGuide assists with finding the optimal location to apply abdominal pressure, easier, more confident scope insertion, and early loop identification. The use of ScopeGuide during colonoscopies may lead to less patient discomfort.<br> By seeing the shape of the entire scope as it moves through the body, ScopeGuide provides additional visual information that is particularly helpful during difficult colonoscopies. The endoscopist can evaluate the extent of looping and get a better sense of which rotational maneuvers will be required to straighten out various loop formations that can occur during colonoscopy.
* '''Evis Lucera Colono-Videoscope:''' It helps in reducing the burden on patients and improving performance for both the inspection and treatment of colorectal cancer through the incorporation of two new functions, namely, high flexibility and highly responsive control at the insertion site, while adopting a thinner scope.
* '''Evis Lucera Gastrointestinal Videoscope:''' This slim gastrointestinal videoscope can be inserted through the nasal tract or the mouth to realise high quality images and is suited for the examination of lesions in the upper digestive tract, for example, in the stomach.
