Olympus BF-Type P40 Flexible Fiberoptic Bronchoscope – For Parts / Repair / AS-IS
Item Overview
Pre-owned Olympus BF-Type P40 Flexible Fiberoptic Bronchoscope being sold FOR PARTS / REPAIR / AS-IS due to numerous broken image fibers producing multiple black spots throughout the field of view. Overall cosmetic condition is good with normal signs of prior clinical use.
The bronchoscope was connected to a compatible Olympus endoscopy system (not included) to evaluate its optical image and basic mechanical operation. Articulation controls functioned as intended; however, the optical defects require professional repair before any clinical use.
