The main feature that makes Olympus TJF-160VF such a coveted piece of medical equipment is the V-Holder which serves as the core innovation for clever control.
The V-System is designed specifically to make endoscopic procedures easier and more reliable. The V-Holder is mounted on the V-Scope and assists the operator in a very efficient way to control the guidewire and to exchange endoscopic devices. The V-Holder allows the endoscopist to perform some parts of the procedure on his own, while the assistant gains time to prepare the next steps.
The V-Holder provides the opportunity to attach selected ET devices onto the V-Holder drum. This supports the endoscopic procedure and makes it possible for the physician to move the guidewire and the catheter at the same time in opposite directions. As a result, the catheter can be removed and the guidewire holds its position.
