Abstract:
This invention may be directed to an endoscopic device. The endoscopic device comprising an elongate member having a distal end, and a cap positioned at the distal end. The cap may have a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end may define at least one recess that does not extend through the cap to the distal end of the cap. The endoscopic device may further include at least one illumination device disposed in the at least one recess.

Claim (Index 39):
An endoscopic device comprising:\n a member having a distal end; a plurality of illumination devices for emitting light from the distal end of the member; and a cap at the distal end of the member, wherein the cap includes:\n a wall having a proximally-facing surface and a distally-facing surface, \n a first recess in the wall, the first recess having an open end at the proximally-facing surface of the wall and a closed end between the proximally-facing and distally-facing surfaces of the wall, wherein the first recess receives light emitted from a distal end of a first illumination device of the plurality of illumination devices, and wherein the light emitted from the distal end of the first illumination device passes through material forming the wall before being emitted from the cap at the distal end of the member, and \n a second recess in the wall, the second recess having an open end at the proximally-facing surface of the wall and a closed end between the proximally-facing and distally-facing surfaces of the wall, wherein the second recess receives light emitted from a distal end of a second illumination device of the plurality of illumination devices, and wherein the light emitted from the distal end of the second illumination device passes through the material forming the wall before being emitted from the cap at the distal end of the member.
