we really like these scopes where I work. They make getting to cecums a lot easier and it less difficult for women that has had pelvic surgeries. I think this is a great buy. You cannot use a 10 bicap cautery with these scopes.
our bronchoscopes are leak test, brushed, washed externally then flushed serveral times with the cleaning solutions. Then placed in a scope processor where it is wash,disinfected for 45 min.,then rinsed and alcoholed and dried.
