This report is being supplemented to provide additional information based on the legal manufacturer's final investigation.A review of the device history record found no deviations that could have caused or contributed to the reported issue.It has been over 6 years since the subject device was manufactured.Based on the results of the investigation, it¿s likely the image was not displayed because electrical circuits were destroyed due to internal water immersion found in the cable and imaging.As to the cause of water immersion, it¿s likely water entered from the scratches on the cable.The final root cause of this event was unable to be identified.The event can be prevented by following the instructions for use which state: ¿never store this equipment together with sharp-tipped instruments (tweezers, forceps, knives, etc.).Doing so could scratch or tear holes in the camera cable, which would allow water to penetrate and damage electrical circuits inside the camera head.¿ olympus will continue to monitor field performance for this device.
