This page holds the telescope, which is the optical part of a rigid cystoscope. You will find 4 mm telescopes from ACMI, which titles also name as Circon ACMI or Gyrus ACMI. Olympus OES telescopes are listed as well. Directions of view here include 0, 12 and 70 degrees. Several titles also give a length, such as 29 cm. Sheaths and obturators are listed on the Urology Sheaths & Obturators page.
To match a telescope, look first at the maker and the full model number. A rigid cystoscope set pairs the telescope with a bridge, a sheath and an obturator. The bridge joins the telescope to the sheath, so check that each part belongs to one maker's system. Next, compare the diameter, direction of view and working length with the endoscope you use now. The direction of view is the angle between the telescope's long axis and the center of its view. Then confirm the model against the maker's own records before you order.

Common questions about Cystoscopes
Do the cystoscopes on this page include a sheath?
No, the listings on this page are telescopes, and sheaths are listed on the Urology Sheaths & Obturators page. The telescope is the optical part of a rigid cystoscope. A full rigid cystoscope set is made up of a telescope, a bridge, a sheath and an obturator. The bridge connects the telescope to the sheath, and each sheath has its own obturator. Read each title and look through the photos, since they show the actual item you receive. Then match the sheath, bridge and telescope to one maker's system before you order.
What does 4 mm mean on a cystoscope?
The 4 mm figure is the diameter of the telescope. Olympus lists its OES Pro telescopes by size and direction of view, such as 4 mm and 70 degrees. The sheath that carries a telescope is sized in French (Fr) instead of millimeters. To convert a French size to millimeters, divide it by 3. A StatPearls review of cystoscopy lists sheaths from 15/17 Fr to 25 Fr. A title that adds a figure such as 29 cm is giving a length, so confirm the working length on the maker's specification. Compare the diameter, length and model with the telescope you use now before you match a sheath.
How do I read an ACMI M3 cystoscope model number?
In a model such as M3-12A, the number after the hyphen is the direction of view in degrees. Gyrus ACMI device records list the M3-12A as an operative telescope at 12 degrees, color coded green. The M3-0A is a direct telescope at 0 degrees, color coded yellow. The same records color code the 30 degree version white, the 70 degree version blue and the 110 degree version red. Each of those five models ending in A is described as autoclavable. Titles may name the maker as ACMI, Circon ACMI or Gyrus ACMI. Compare the full model number, including any final letter, with the maker's records before you match a telescope.
