A treatment tool for an endoscope includes a sheath member, a treatment part, an operating part body, an operating wire, a slider, and a force limiting part. When a predetermined force is applied to the force limiting part with advance and refraction of the slider, the force limiting part engages a wall surface of the insertion passage of the operating wire and fixes the slider by being compressed in an advance-and-retraction direction and expanding in a radial direction.

A tissue fastener production method of clamping two living tissues together by bringing the two living tissues into close contact includes the following steps: fixing one end of a wire material made of a metal to a shaft body, and winding the wire material around an outer periphery of the shaft body while twisting the wire material round an axis of the wire material, thereby forming a coil on which a predetermined force is exerted in the winding direction; heat treating the wire material to impart superelasticity thereto; and deforming the wire material to which the superelasticity is imparted in a range in which the wire material is elastically deformable, and reversing the winding direction of the coil in a direction reverse to the winding direction of the coil wound in the step of forming the coil so as to obtain an initial tension corresponding to the predetermined force.

A medical instrument includes a medical needle configured to puncture a tissue, and a tissue-supporting member configured to be inserted into the lumen of the medical needle and supports the tissue. The medical needle includes an insertion portion that has a longitudinal axis, a lumen that is formed along the direction of the longitudinal axis of the insertion portion, an opening portion that is formed at the distal end of the insertion portion while being connected to the lumen, and a puncturing portion that is formed in the periphery of the opening portion and has a pair of projections sharply protruding in a direction extending toward the distal end from the proximal end of the insertion portion.

When an ultrasound endoscope arrives at an objective area, a puncture needle is located in a scan area of a first ultrasound image. Thereby, an image of the puncture needle is delineated on the first ultrasound image. Furthermore, an ultrasound probe is inserted into the puncture needle and an ultrasound transducer of the ultrasound probe is arranged in the objective area through the puncture needle. Then, the ultrasound probe is driven and a second ultrasound image is delineated. Detailed observation inside the objective area in which the puncture needle is punctured is possible with the second ultrasound image.

A color distribution measuring optical system generates an image of an object to be measured via an imaging optical system and a color matching function filter. The color matching function filter is an optical multilayer film filter, and the angle of arrangement of the color matching function filter can be changed, with respect to an optical axis of the imaging optical system, depending on the numerical aperture of the imaging optical system by a tilt angle changing device. Various imaging optical systems can be used even when the optical multilayer filter is used.
摘要:
This tissue fastening apparatus is a tissue fastener for clamping first biological tissue and second biological tissue so as to be in close contact with each other, including: a first tissue fixation portion, made of an elastic wire wound in a coil, that is locked on the first biological tissue; and a second tissue fixation portion, made of an elastic wire wound in a coil, that is locked on the second biological tissue, the second tissue fixation portion continuing into the first tissue fixation portion, in which when falling off first and second biological tissue necrotized by being clamped between the first tissue fixation portion and the second tissue fixation portion, the tissue fastener moves only from the second tissue fixation portion to the first tissue fixation portion side and falls off.
