leaking an entomology exam using an endoscopic camera.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>About Endoscopic Camera<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a device used to <\/span><b>view, capture, and record videos in small, hard-to-reach places of the human body with limited to no visibility.\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It <\/span><b>allows doctors <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to <\/span><b>visualize the surgery or diagnostic procedure on a larger medical-grade screen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, like a TV display, a computer monitor, or a stereoscopic viewing console.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most modern endoscope camera modules <\/span><b>utilize \u201cchip-on-tip\u201d technology, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">where the <\/span><b>lens and imaging electronics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are<\/span><b> combined into a miniature package<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> located at the <\/span><b>end of the device.\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Endoscopic cameras <\/span><b>illuminate the anatomical area through fiber optics or LEDs on the tip, <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and the <\/span><b>image signal is transferred<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> out from the camera on an electrical cable.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The light source must provide sufficient brightness and illumination angle to ensure <\/span><b>true-color properties and brilliant image presentation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to aid medical professionals in their diagnoses and procedures.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are <\/span><b>many types<\/b><span style=\"font-weight:
