## Indications for use
FUJIFILM Video Laparoscope EL-R740S is intended to be used with a video processor, light source, monitor, hand instruments, electrosurgical unit and other ancillary equipment for minimally invasive observation, diagnosis and treatment in general abdominal, gynecologic and thoracic areas. The VP-7000 unit is used for endoscopic observation, diagnosis, treatment, and image recording. It is intended to process electronic signals transmitted from a video endoscope (a video camera in an endoscope). This product may be used on all patients requiring endoscopic examination and when using a Fujinon/FUJIFILM medical endoscope and light source together with monitor, recorder and various peripheral devices. BLI (Blue Light Imaging), LCI (Linked Color Imaging) and FICE (Flexible spectral-Imaging Color Enhancement) are adjunctive tools for gastrointestinal endoscopic examination which can be used to supplement Fujifilm white light endoscopy. BLI, LCI and FICE are not intended to replace histopathological sampling as a means of diagnosis. The BL-7000 Light Source is used for endoscopic observation, diagnosis, treatment, and image recording. It is intended to provide illumination to an endoscope. The light source also functions as a pump to supply air through the endoscope while inside the body to assist in obtaining clear visualization to facilitate diagnostic examination. This product may be used on all patients requiring endoscopic examination and when using a Fujinon/FUJIFILM medical endoscope and video processor together with monitor, recorder and various peripheral devices.
