Solving Video Connectivity Barriers in the Shift to Higher-Resolution, Single-Use Endoscopy Systems

There have been many recent technology advances in CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) sensors that are revolutionising the medical videoscope market.

As part of this shift towards the use of CMOS sensors and higher data rate links, Electromagnetic interference (EMI) has become a critical challenge in the design and operation of high-speed data transmission systems within medical applications, particularly in endoscopic imaging and electrosurgical procedures. This white paper explores the nature of EMI in medical endoscopy, the specific noise profiles encountered in surgical environments, and innovative approaches to mitigate its effects. We examine traditional countermeasures and introduce a more advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP)-based approach to noise cancellation. This approach leverages adaptive equalization, noise cancellation, and dynamic error correction to improve image integrity and system reliability in an electrosurgical environment.
