An endoscope is a medical
instrument that aids the doctor in the examination of the interior of any
hollow organ or cavity of the human body. Endoscope can be directly inserted
into the organ and consists of different parts like a rigid or flexible tube,
optical fiber system, lens and eyepiece. Philipp Bozzini developed the first
endoscope in the year 1806 but this invention did not gain popularity till 1822
when William Beaumont used the equipment on a human body. A major turning point
in the use of endoscope was the use of electric light, which was available only
for external use, but was soon developed for internal use like the invention of
hysteroscope by Charles David and further experiments by Hans Christian
Jacobaeus.
