KARL STORZ has integrated the documentation units KARL STORZ AIDA and AIDA -DVD in the digital signal chain. These units allow image, video and patient data as well as simultaneous voice documentation to be recorded immediately and Image and data ar Seize the
Finally digital workflow has come full circle video endoscopy al, bit for bit digital image signal is created which is available for all applications in the digital video chain with absolutely no loss in quality. Digital flat screen monitors for state-of-the-art image visualization The Image1 digital image information is transferred to the TFT flat screen monitors already in digital SDI format. This makes image visualization possible without the usual delay associated with the digitalization of analog images. directly to DVD or CD with no loss whatsoever ensuring outstanding digital quality. KARL STORZ AIDA allows digital patient documentation in the OR procedure to become part of the daily routine. rchiving systems moment
THE SOURCE OF IMAGING TM Visibly Improved Imaging Digital Source Sampling of the image immediately after the CCD sensing chip minimizes image artifacts, and maximizes hi-fidelity image transmission. Signal Enhanced Quality Digital Signal Processing improves image quality even more by providing contrast enhancement and fiberscope filtration for rigid, semi-rigid and flexible endoscopes. From high bandwidth digital data link through built-in adaptation and expandable architecture, IMAGE-1 is ready for any new advancement. Any Head, Any Time One CCU for all camera heads, single or three-chip, minimizes procedure start-up and maximizes standardization across all specialties. Common design characteristics from camera head to camera head ensure consistent familiarity, so you and your whole team can more efficiently use the whole system. Control at Your Fingertips With a compact profile and reprogrammable easy-access buttons, the ergonomically designed camera head provides intuitive, sterile field access to all camera operations. This puts you in command at the press of a button. Consistent Illumination at Your Control Proprietary Auto-Exposure System instantaneously responds to changes in scene illumination for a seamless transition from one exposure to the next, regardless of scope placement or available light.

As well as a commitment to standardization, compatibility and discovery to keep you at the forefront of imaging technology. So you not only get Digital First. But digital that lasts. Beyond Digital
Images in ready-to-print quality Record high resolution images in ready-to-print quality for publication in specialist medical journals. Smart Screen and touch screen The integrated flat touch screen can be adjusted to the optimal viewing angle. You have an overview of the images, system status and control functions at a glance. Allows continual feed back Burning When "burning", the streaming video is recorded directly to DVD or CD; allowing you to spend more time with the patient. MPEG-2 recording formats offer exactly the right combination of resolution and compression. You have the option of recording on either CD-R, DVD-R or DVD+R/RW. Publishing Print high quality images suitable for publication in even the most renowned medical journals. You can rename the files as you please Simple updating Easy updating by a KARL STORZ authorized dealer.
KARL STORZ AIDA SYSTEMS INTEGRATED IMAGE RECORDING IN THE OR Surgeons are now able to save images, video sequences and audio files directly from the live mode. All the hardware which you need in order to record digital video images in the format and on the storage medium of your choice, to archive these images and transfer them to the network is located in the compact and ergonomically designed housings of the KARL STORZ AIDA systems. The unique Smart Screen of the KARL STORZ AIDA DVD and the 15" touch screen of the KARL STORZ AIDA -compact ensure an optimal viewing angle and continual feedback on the system status. Thanks to the cleverly designed system integration, all KARL STORZ AIDA systems are fully compatible with the KARL STORZ IMAGE 1 camera system and the complete range of KARL STORZ video imaging systems. seize the moment
Individual adjustment Since the receptors in the eye mean that each of us perceives the images and colors displayed differently, the new TFT flat screen monitors have numerous menu settings to allow the color, contrast and brightness to be optimally adapted to suit each individual user. Universal VESA 100 holder The new medical flat screen monitors from KARL STORZ come with the new VESA 100 holder. Using the stand or mounted on the height-adjustable arm bracket, they can be ergonomically integrated into the modern operating room saving space and weight. Outstanding image quality The extraordinary image quality of the new TFT flat screen monitors from KARL STORZ ensures that the digital image signal is suitably converted. The compact and lightweight structure, the drip-proof and dust-tight housing and the design which meets the IEC 601-1 and MDD standards all add the finishing touches. SDI transmission technology SDI technology allows a transmission distance of up to 300 meters with no time delay and without the need for signal amplification. This facilitates, for example, loss-free transmissions from the operating room to training rooms and lecture theatres. In comparison with other digital transmission methods, SDI technology enables data to be transmitted with greater cost efficiency over longer distances using conventional composite video cables and existing cable routings. Join the information age The KARL STORZ Communication Bus System (SCB) displays the parameters of the OR equipment, light sources etc. used directly on the monitor. The OR team is thus provided with all the important information regarding the current equipment functions.
DIGITAL IMAGE VISUALIZATION The IMAGE1 digital image information is transferred to the TFT flat screen monitors already in digital SDI format, therefore making precise image visualization possible without the time delay normally associated with the digitalization of analog signals. This means that even rapid instrument movements can be optimally displayed on the new monitors. Digital visualization
SDI interface The beating heart of the system is the serial digital interface (SDI) which provides excellent video quality. The images are transmitted with their full bandwidth to local SDI-compatible video recorders or to digital image recording devices without being converted to analog signals. The 1 x 4 SDI transmission amplifier is able to simultaneously transmit a received image to four different output devices. An 8 x 8 S-Video matrix router is integrated into the system which can operate 8 video inputs and 8 video outputs at the same time. Touch screen monitor with increased functionality The main interface is a 12" touch screen monitor with which the OR nurses can quickly and simply operate the various functions for the operating room from the nurse workstation. System expansion The basic system is designed for two 18" LCD flat screen monitors, additional monitors (flat screen-lcd or plasma) can, if required, be connected using the optional flat screen monitor cable set. The system components have been created for safe use in the operating room and have been integrated into high-quality steel housing with a hospital-compatible power supply and an isolation transformer. Tele-medicine at an affordable price Get set for the future discover the possibilities of the new OR1 connect S4E system from KARL STORZ.
