    Abstract: A fiberscope for stereoscopic imaging has at least one wavefront manipulator which, for creating a sample beam, is configured to pre-shape a wavefront of the light from a light source such that the pre-shaped light is focusable substantially on an object point in an object region and raster-deflectable to a multiplicity of object points. The fiberscope also includes an illumination fiber for supplying the pre-shaped sample beam to the object region, and a detector fiber for supplying scattered light reflected and/or scattered at the respective object point to a detector which captures the scattered light and is connected to a computer unit. The computer unit is configured to compose the stereoscopic image from the captured scattered light. A method is for acquiring stereoscopic image data from a fiberscope.

    Abstract: A non-occluded dual lumen endotracheal tube is disclosed that includes a first lumen for delivering oxygen or other gases to a patient, and a second lumen for suctioning secretions or other fluids from the patient's airway. The endotracheal tube also includes a fiber-optic imaging system and an AI hyperspectral imaging system for providing real-time, high-resolution images of the patient's airway. The AI hyperspectral imaging system is configured to analyze spectral characteristics of image pixels captured by the camera and to correct and enhance the images provided by the fiber-optic imaging system by reducing noise, correcting distortion and improving contrast and brightness, resulting in improved visualization of the patient's airway and better detection of abnormalities or other conditions.

    Abstract: A surgical laryngoscope blade made of a metallic base material with a shaft having an elongate base body is presented. The base body extends between a proximal and distal end and forms a central main channel and an auxiliary channel. The main channel comprises a proximal end profile and a distal end profile. The proximal end profile has an approximately oval design. The distal end profile is geometrically adapted to a vocal cord apparatus. The major axis of the proximal end profile and the major axis of the distal end profile are oriented orthogonal to one another. The auxiliary channel is spaced apart from the main channel in a proximal end region adjacent to the proximal end of the base body. The auxiliary channel opens into the main channel in a distal end region. A method serves to produce such a surgical laryngoscope blade.
