High impact information on Esophagoscopes

In 1961, it was supplemented by the Eder-Hufford semi-flexible esophagoscope and later by the Olympus gastrocamera and then the Hirschowitz fiberoptic instruments from ACMI and Olympus [1].
Using a flexible esophagoscope, technetium-99m antimony sulfide colloid was injected in the esophageal submucosa of six dogs who then underwent nuclear scans to identify lymph-node location [2].
Intraluminal staining with toluidine blue through a fiberoptic esophagoscope gave a positive biopsy in 83.9% [3].
