Abstract

A cart (298) or man-portable system and method for performing endoscopic procedures is provided. A portable display device, such as a laptop computer (44), is coupled to a handle (32) comprising a miniature camera (30B) and fiber optic illumination subsystem (24). A sterile disposable portion (34) is fitted over the illumination subsystem (24) and inserted into a target area on a patient. Images of the target area are conveyed from the camera (30B) to the display device (44)while an endoscopic procedure is performed, thus facilitating real-time diagnosis during the procedure.
