What is the Karl Storz IMAGE1 S Modular Camera Platform?
The KARL STORZ IMAGE1 S is a modular camera platform that combines various technologies — rigid, flexible and 3D endoscopy as well as FULL HD and 4K imaging — in one system that adapts to individual customer needs, per the official KARL STORZ catalog. Fluorescence imaging (NIR/ICG), integration of operating microscopes and use of VITOM 3D are possible via the platform. The IMAGE1 S CONNECT II delivers a 3840 x 2160 px signal with NIR/ICG and Blue Light Imaging (BLI) support plus automatic light source control, and S-Technologies (CLARA, CHROMA, SPECTRA A + B) enhance visualization across the surgical workflow.
What is it used for?
Laparoscopic and endoscopic surgical programmes standardizing visualization across specialties.
