Abstract:
A medical imaging system includes multiple illuminating endoscopes with cameras having image sensors exposure control and a frame memory. The exposure control of each camera activates the frame memory and light source for collection of selected frame images by the frame memory. A data link among the endoscopes synchronizes exclusive initiation of the exposure controls in recurring serial order for activation of each respective frame memory and light source.

Claim (Index 10):
A medical imaging system comprising\n two endoscopes, each having a distal end; two video cameras, each video camera including a field of view from the distal end of the respective endoscope, an image sensor capable of sensing video frame images of the field of view at a selected frame rate and a frame memory capable of collecting sensed video frame images; two light sources capable of illuminating the fields of view, respectively, the light sources each including a first mode providing direct lighting; a control system including a data link between the cameras, the control system synchronizing the video cameras and the light sources for illumination of the fields of view by the light sources, respectively, and for collection and discard of the video frame images of the fields of view by the frame memories, respectively, the first mode of the light source associated with a first of the two endoscopes being deactivated and the video frame images associated with the first of the two endoscopes being discarded when the image sensor of the camera of a second of the two endoscopes is sensing video frame images selected to be collected by the frame memory of the second of the two endoscopes and the first mode of the light source associated with the second of the two endoscopes being deactivated and the video frame images associated with the second of the two endoscopes being discarded when the image sensor of the camera of the first of the two endoscopes is sensing video frame images selected to be collected by the frame memory of the first of the two endoscopes, the collection of the video frame images alternately being of the first and second fields of view.
