“Fujifilm is more than a leading supplier of high quality flexible endoscope technology. Our experience and knowledge of financial solutions assist in operating efficiently, rounding out an affordable product portfolio,” said Kurt Cannon, Vice President of Sales, Marketing, Operations and Support Services, Endoscopy Division of FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc.

Wayne, N.J., October 17, 2014 (Booth # 505) – At the Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG), The Endoscopy Division of FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. will showcase the EPX-4440HD Digital Video Processor with FICE and Light Source which is now available in the United States. The annual meeting will be held October 17 – 22, 2014 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Flexible spectral Imaging Color Enhancement (FICE) is an image processing technology which generates real-time spectral images from conventional white light images through the use of special processing algorithms. Now available on the VP-4440HD video processor from Fujifilm, it enables users to apply image enhancement to emphasize the contrast to a white light endoscopy image.

"FICE technology is another step forward in Fujifilm’s dedication to providing innovative endoscopic solutions to meet clinical and business needs of medical professionals,” said Keiichi Nagata, President, Endoscopy Division of FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc.

ACG provides a forum for showcasing the latest innovations in gastrointestinal products and services. Fujifilm also has a long commitment to advancing education and will continue that commitment by supporting the ACG Outreach Program, designed to offer educational information and hands-on experiences to high school students interested in the medical field.  As part of the program, Fujifilm will provide equipment to support the hands-on workshop that will be held on October, 21, 2014 from 9:00 – 10:30 AM at the Philadelphia High School for Girls in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
