The development of medical endoscopic technology originated in the early 19th century, when physicians invented endoscopes to explore the interior of the human body. At that time, the basic design of endoscopes was simple, consisting only of a rigid catheter, a light source, and a mirror surface for reflection. With the update and iteration of core technologies and the emergence of diverse clinical needs, medical endoscopes have become an important instrument commonly used in modern diagnosis and treatment. Emerging optical and electronic endoscopic products have significantly improved in quality and performance, developing towards multifunctionality, high-quality images, miniaturization, consumables, and other trends, while continuously expanding their application fields.
