Veterinary Endoscopy

What is endoscopy and what is it used for?

Endoscopy is a vital component in the investigation, diagnosis and treatment of many medical and surgical conditions, across all veterinary species. Regardless of whether you and your practice are just starting to consider incorporating endoscopy into your work, or you have already got to grips with the basics and want to increase the range of endoscopy services you offer, IMV imaging have everything you need.

Getting started

With so many uses for endoscopy, it is difficult to know where to begin. Before you can create your perfect endoscopy set up, you need to consider the anatomic areas you will be examining, and whether a rigid or flexible endoscope is most appropriate.

How do I leak test my endoscope?

How do I clean my endoscope?

Proper cleaning and maintenance of the endoscope is essential, but shouldn’t be daunting. To help, we have step-by-step guides for flexible and rigid scopes to assist you and your team.

Having trouble?

If your equipment is not performing correctly, or needs some TLC, our service team are here to help you. Even though the endoscopes are designed with the rigors of veterinary practice in mind, we still recommend maintaining your equipment with a service contract. Beyond that, our Clinical team can support you with the use of your machine in practice, and the Account management team are here for any questions you might have about purchasing equipment.
