AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention provides systems, methods, and apparatuses that help medical professionals find ways to hold instruments on their scope during procedures such as examinations or surgeries. This makes it easy and faster to navigate through difficult areas like narrow spaces.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes various technical problem addressed in this patent. Specifically, current methods require multiple operators, tools, and resources, which makes them challenging to administer and manage. Additionally, existing techniques involve using a mother scope and a baby scope, making it hard to see certain areas within the body without having to go back and forth between these different instruments.
