Coimbatore Medical College installs Endoscopy equipment

A video endoscopy equipment costing Rs. 12 lakh has been installed at the Coimbatore Medical College Hospital under the State Government's initiatives to modernise its hospitals.

"The earlier versions given to the Government hospitals enabled only the doctor to view the upper gastro-intestinal system. The new equipment helps even others view the images on a monitor. Even copies can be made on a compact disc and given to the patients," Dean of the hospital T.P. Kalaniti said on Thursday after commissioning the equipment.
