The Innovative V-System Design Lets You Proceed with Confidence and Efficiency
The V-System is a complete system that integrates Olympus endoscopes and EndoTherapy devices. The revolutionary V-System design offers the option of guidewire manipulation by the physician or the assistant, allows easier exchange of catheters, and enhances cannulation capability.
V-Marking
Indicates when to raise and lower the V-Groove forceps elevator.
Eight-wire basket designed for the capture and removal of small stones.
The FlowerBasketV has eight wires on the distal side and four wires on the proximal side. The eight-wire section allows the precise retrieval of small stones while the four-wire section makes it easier to release them.
superior insertion capability
The FG-V411Q and FG-V412Q are designed to be wire guided with the wire passing only through the distal end of the basket. This makes it possible to insert the basket into a small incision on the papilla, and allows selective insertion into the intrahepatic bile duct. In addition, these baskets have the same expansion capability as our conventional models(FG-401Q/FG-22Q-1 etc) because the guidewire is only attached to the basket’s distal tip.
Rotation mechanism and
bullet-shaped tip
The rotatable basket (FG-V401QR / FG-V402QR ) allows the retrieval of small stones, especially floating stones or stones located in the lower bile duct above the papilla. The bullet-shaped tip ensures smooth insertion into the bile duct.
Four-wire basket
design for
versatile retrieval
For versatile retrieval of a wide range of stones, the TetraCatchV features a standard four-wire retrieval basket configuration.
The exclusive V-Marking is located on the proximal side of the sheath. When this marking reaches the channel port on the scope’s control section, it indicates that the device tip has reached the distal end of the scope and the V-Groove forceps elevator may be lowered. When withdrawing the device from the scope, the same marking indicates when to raise the elevator to lock the guidewire.
Injection port for contrast media facilitates fluoroscopic visualization.
Sterile single-use design for convenience both before and after procedures.
