    摘要: A forceps tool is usable with an endoscope or bronchoscope having an insertion tube defining a working channel. Components of the forceps tool include a flexible guide passable through, selectively extendable from, the working channel of the endoscope. A carrier extends outward from the flexible guide, such that the carrier extends further away from the endoscope. A first cup portion is configured to selectively catch and obtain tissue specimens and is pivotally attached to the carrier at a point distal to the flexible guide. The first cup portion is moveable or pivotable between a closed position and an open position. The open position is further away from the carrier than the closed position, as the first cup portion pivots about the distal point. The forceps tool may include a second cup portion. A method of using the forceps tool is also provided.
