The V-System is a complete system that integrates Olympus endoscopes and EndoTherapy devices. The revolutionary
V-System design offers the option of guidewire manipulation by the physician or the assistant, allows easier exchange
of catheters, and enhances cannulation capability.

The convenient C-Hook allows the device handle to be attached to the endoscope’s control section, putting
it within easy reach of the endoscopist. With the device handle right at hand, the endoscopist can maneuver
the guidewire, inject contrast media, and manipulate the handle — all while keeping a grip on the scope
control section.

The exclusive V-Marking is located on the proximal side of the sheath. When this marking reaches the
channel port on the scope’s control section, it indicates that the device tip has reached the distal end of
the scope and the V-Groove forceps elevator may be lowered. When withdrawing the device from the
scope, the same marking indicates when to raise the elevator to lock the guidewire.

Excellent visibility under
fluoroscopy

The platinum marking at the distal
end ensures that the tip is clearly
visible under fluoroscopy.

Wide selection of cannulae

A full line-up of 8 models of different
tip designs and diameters is available
to meet every clinical requirement.

Smooth cannulation of
even minor or
constricted papilla

The X-PressV’s cross-cut round
tip is not only ideally suited for
smooth cannulation of the papilla
of Vater, but is also equally effective
for cannulation of the minor or
constricted papilla.

Expanded guidewire
compatibility

Compatible with guidewires of
various sizes.

Comprehensive distal

Cannulation depth is indicated by
markings at 3mm intervals at the

The balloon catheter sheath is manufactured from a
special material that allows it for improved insertion
into the papilla, ensuring smoother guidewire passage,

This instrument meets the recognized standard for high

frequency electrosurgical leakage current - ANSI/AAMI HF-18(1993),

4.2.5.2 and 5.2.5.2 - when used with an Olympus sphinctetorome.

Removal of the guidewire is not necessary during sphincterotomy.

Efficient Guidance of Devices to the Bile And Pancreatic Ducts

Two-step markers ensure visibility
in the endoscopic field of view

Two-step markers on the LinearGuideV make
it easy to confirm the movement and position
of the guidewire within the endoscopic field of view.

Two distal tip configurations to suit
different techniques and preferences

The LinearGuideV comes in two tip
configurations — straight and angulated.
The straight tip can be used for a variety of purposes,
while the angulated tip is best suited for passing a
stricture and for selective insertion.
Choose the tip that best suits your techniques
and preferences.

The LinearGuideV has been designed to provide
superior insertion capability, maximum endoscopic
visibility, and easy device exchange. When the
LinearGuideV’s spiral markings are visible from
the scope tip, the guidewire can be locked to
simplify device exchange.

Endoscopic visibility of the spiral-

markers indicates that

LinearGuideV may be locked in

the V-Groove.
