A colposcope is a specialized medical device used during colposcopy procedures to examine the cervix and vaginal walls under magnification. It combines a light source and optical lenses to help clinicians identify abnormalities such as cervical dysplasia or cancerous lesions, often following an abnormal Pap smear or gynecological exam.
These devices are typically regulated as medical instruments, with requirements varying by jurisdiction. They are commonly supplied as standalone systems, often requiring calibration and maintenance to ensure accurate imaging and safe clinical use.
