Fiber optic technology is opening exciting new fields of application in the medical industry. The physical characteristics of fiber make it a natural choice for many uses. Optical fiber has become widely used in imaging, laser delivery systems, illumination, sensors and equipment interconnects.
Optical fibers provide a compact and flexible conduit for light or data delivery in diagnostic and interventional medical applications. In order to be effective, optical fibers require robust, precise interconnects that integrate seamlessly into the medical theater. Diamond has the expertise to make these interconnects a reality.
Fiber optic solutions applicable for several medical sectors, such as:
DIAGNOSTIC DEVICES, SURGICAL INSTRUMENTATION, THERAPUTIC APPLICATIONS, OPERATION ROOM, LAB RESEARCH, etc. must satisfy specific requirements in terms of:
SAFETY
RELIABILITY
EASY OF HANDLING
STERILIZATION
EASY PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
INGRESS PROTECTION
INSENSITIVITY TO MAGNETIC FIELDS
HIGH PERFORMANCE
LIGHT WEIGTH
Which are beyond the requirements typically required of standard commercial connectors and cable assemblies.
