A new laser confocal microscopic probe has been developed by Mauna 
Kea Technologies which works in conjuction with conventional 
endoscopes providing realtime video sequences of the intestinal 
mucosa magnified 500-1000 times greater than the conventional 
endoscopic view.  Both normal endoscopic image and confocal images 
are available simultaneously, allowing the confocal probe to be visually 
positioned with the endoscope.  This system allows for an immediate 
diagnosis and eliminates the need to take and prepare intrusive 
biopsy samples.  The new system is an improvement over previously 
available laser confocal endomicroscopy systems, being easier and 
more intuitive to use.  The Mauna Kea Technologies website provides a 
detailed description of the device.

New clinical studies confirm Mauna Kea Technologies’ endomicroscopy
