Abstract
Flexible endoscopy has been used for many years for investigation of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, and in recent years rigid endoscopy has become much more widely used for routine procedure in general practice. This chapter assesses equipment, purchasing options and managing the endoscopy service.

Field of view of a 2.7 mm 30 degrees arthroscope. The field of view delineates the margins of the image that can be seen. The angle of view is the centre of direction of view in relation to the long axis of the endoscope. In this case the centre of the field of view is at 30 degrees to the long axis. © 2012 British Small Animal Veterinary Association
