Optics and photonics - Medical endoscopes and endotherapy devices - Part 5: Determination of optical resolution of rigid endoscopes with optics
Scope/Abstract
This document applies to rigid endoscopes designed for use in the practice of medicine. Endoscopes having a fibre-optic or opto-electronic imaging system are excluded. It specifies a test method for determining the optical resolution of endoscopes.

This document provides a measurement method for characterizing three aspects of the optical resolution of a rigid endoscope. Characteristic A is used to provide a simple measurement of the limiting resolution of the endoscope image. Characteristic B provides a measurement of low spatial frequency resolution and characterizes the sharpness, or contrast, of the endoscope image. Characteristic C provides a measurement of the spatial frequency response of the endoscope image.
Extent of Recognition
Complete standard
Rationale for Recognition
This standard is relevant to medical devices and is recognized on its scientific and technical merit and/or because it supports existing regulatory policies.

Note: Characteristic A is a single-valued subjective metric primarily designed for rapid manufacturing testing, and therefore it would not be appropriate for use to provide endoscope optical performance data in regulatory submissions.
