| endoscope | <instrument> An expensive and usually highly flexible viewing instrument with capabilities of diagnostic (biopsy) or even therapeutic functions through special channels. For the flexible variety the additional word, fibreoptic is added. The viewing component is made up of hundreds of mini light transmitting glass fibres bundled tightly together. Today there is virtually an endoscope available for every single orifice and space in the body! Endoscopes have also revolutionalised many procedures - as in laparasocopic surgery, the diagnosis of peptic ulcers, of some lung tumours and those in the urogenital tract. (07 Apr 1998) |

| fibreoptic endoscope | <instrument> A flexible fibreoptic scope that is used to directly visualize the internal anatomy of a hollow organ. Fibreoptics technology uses thin strands of glass or plastic to transmit light (along their length through internal reflection) for imaging. (12 Nov 1997) |
| Allen video enhanced contrast | <procedure> A method for enhancing microscopic images pioneered by R D Allen. The digitised image has the background (an out of focus image of the same microscopic field with comparable unevenness of illumination etc.) subtracted and the contrast expanded to utilise the potential contrast range. Interestingly, it is possible to produce images of objects that are below the theoretical limit of resolution microtubules for example. (18 Nov 1997) |
| video-assisted thoracic surgery | A less morbid alternative to "open" thoracotomy that employs cameras, optic systems, percutaneous stapling devices, and assorted endoscopic graspers, retractors, and forceps. Also called video thoracoscopic surgery, it can be selectively applied to various pulmonary, pleural, and pericardial lesions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| video games | A form of interactive entertainment in which the player controls electronically generated images that appear on a video display screen. This includes video games played in the home on special machines or home computers, and those played in arcades. (12 Dec 1998) |
| video microscopy | <technique> Microscopy that takes advantage of video as an imaging, image processing, analysing, or controlling device. (05 Aug 1998) |
| video recording | The storing or preserving of video signals for television to be played back later via a transmitter or receiver. Recordings may be made on magnetic tape or discs (videodisc recording). (12 Dec 1998) |
| video waveform | <microscopy> The display of the (composite) video signal onto a cathode-ray oscilloscope triggered by the V- or H-sync pulse. The amplitudes and waveforms, as well as precision of timing, of the signal components are made visible. (05 Aug 1998) |
| microscopy, video | Microscopy in which television cameras are used to brighten magnified images that are otherwise too dark to be seen with the naked eye. It is used frequently in telepathology. (12 Dec 1998) |
