Green Filter
To examine with the
green filter in place,
slide the green filter bar
to the left. By utilizing
the green filter, the
terminal
angioarchitecture
becomes etched in
black allowing a degree
of discrimination not
otherwise achieved.
This contrast also
enhances the features
of the surface
topography. Sliding the
green filter bar to the
right will disengage the
green filter.
CAUTION
• Avoid hitting the colposcope! When transporting
or adjusting the colposcope, handle the colposcope
gently, taking care to avoid sharp knocks.
• Avoid the following conditions: dust, vibration, and
exposure to high temperature, moisture, or direct
sunlight.
• Do not leave dust, dirt, or finger prints on the lens
surface. They will prevent a clear observation of the
image.
• Support the bottom of the light source if height
adjustment is required.
