Abstract:
The rapid development of domestically produced high-end medical endoscopes, particularly those incorporating 4K ultra-high-definition and fluorescence imaging, has shown significant promise in minimally invasive thoracic surgery. This expert consensus systematically delineates the clinical applications and value of these advanced technologies in various thoracic procedures, including wedge resection, anatomical segmentectomy, and bronchial sleeve resection. Furthermore, it establishes a scientific, quantitative evaluation system for these domestic thoracoscopes. The proposed framework comprises four primary indicators (reliability, efficiency & cost-effectiveness, clinical performance, and service & support) and 14 secondary indicators, each with a defined weight. This consensus aims to provide technical guidance for clinicians, direct future research and development for manufacturers, and ultimately promote the widespread adoption of high-quality domestic medical endoscopes, thereby advancing the national medical equipment industry.
