2 Intended use The Rhino laryngoscopes RS1 / RX1 / RSX-USB / RSX-P / RSX-HD / FS2 are used for endo- scopic examinations in human ear, nose and throat medicine. The flexible rhino laryngoscopes can be used to examine the nose, pharynx and larynx, nasal cavities and nasopharynx. With the video types, the examination regions can be displayed on high-resolution screens via a (panel) PC.
Image processing 4.1.2.1. RS1 / RX1 With the RS1-PAL, RS1-NTSC and RX1 types, the image signal is transmitted in video format. This im- age format can be displayed directly on a monitor that has a corresponding video input (PAL; NTSC; HDMI).
