A surgical snare device for use with an endoscope, said snare device comprising: a first handle assembly having a cylindrical body with an exterior surface, a proximal end and a distal end, wherein said first handle assembly comprises a first marking having a first value associated therewith and a second marking having a second value associated therewith on said exterior surface of said cylindrical body; a collar having a cylindrical body with a proximal end and a distal end and, said collar coupled to said first handle assembly around said cylindrical body and slidably movable along said cylindrical body of said first handle assembly such that said collar may be positioned to align with at least one of said first marking and said second marking; a drive wire having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein said proximal end of said drive wire is attached to an actuator; an elongated tubular sheath attached to the distal end of the first handle assembly; and, a snare loop attached to said distal end of said drive wire, wherein said snare loop is movable between a first collapsed configuration within the sheath, a second expanded configuration and a third expanded configuration, wherein the second and third expanded configurations deploy past a distal end of said sheath by manipulating said actuator along said first handle assembly such that a portion of said actuator aligns with one of said markings, wherein an internal diameter of said snare loop in the second expanded configuration corresponds to the first value of said first marking and wherein an internal diameter of said snare loop in the third expanded configuration corresponds to the second value of said second marking, characterized in that at least one of said first marking and second marking comprises an indentation or a raised surface which, when physically met by the collar, generates a sound to indicate that a predetermined snare loop internal diameter has been achieved. a first handle assembly having a cylindrical body with an exterior surface, a proximal end and a distal end, wherein said first handle assembly comprises a first marking having a first value associated therewith and a second marking having a second value associated therewith on said exterior surface of said cylindrical body; a collar having a cylindrical body with a proximal end and a distal end and, said collar coupled to said first handle assembly around said cylindrical body and slidably movable along said cylindrical body of said first handle assembly such that said collar may be positioned to align with at least one of said first marking and said second marking; a drive wire having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein said proximal end of said drive wire is attached to an actuator; an elongated tubular sheath attached to the distal end of the first handle assembly; and, a snare loop attached to said distal end of said drive wire, wherein said snare loop is movable between a first collapsed configuration within the sheath, a second expanded configuration and a third expanded configuration, wherein the second and third expanded configurations deploy past a distal end of said sheath by manipulating said actuator along said first handle assembly such that a portion of said actuator aligns with one of said markings, wherein an internal diameter of said snare loop in the second expanded configuration corresponds to the first value of said first marking and wherein an internal diameter of said snare loop in the third expanded configuration corresponds to the second value of said second marking, characterized in that at least one of said first marking and second marking comprises an indentation or a raised surface which, when physically met by the collar, generates a sound to indicate that a predetermined snare loop internal diameter has been achieved. <EOS>
