Newest Innovation in Borescopes & AI

ISSUE NO. 809

Are major repairs costing your department money? What if I told you there is technology available that will help you potentially identify issues before becoming a major problem?


WatchDog Endo AI is an artificial intelligence software designed to augment technician processes during scope inspection. This is a game changing software that works together with Flexible Inspection Scopes to provide a standardized process for detecting visual anomalies within a scope’s working channel. WatchDog Endo AI empowers the sterile processing department by assisting the technicians during the post-cleaning process by identifying anomalies within the working channel, such as scratches, crimps, stains, peeling and moisture droplets. This data is collected and reported to help SPD managers determine cleanliness and maintenance requirements for endoscopes prior to patient usage.


WatchDog Endo AI provides an enhanced video feed and still photo capability that captures the inspection of the working channel and creates a standardized, easily trainable process for technicians to consistently review and identify working channel anomalies. This allows for better and consistent processes regardless of whether it is the first or the 100th scope processed. The software also provides a time-neutral enhancement to the normal scope inspection process, allowing technicians to perform the same task within the same amount of time while the AI identifies anomalies and generates a report of each inspection.


There are many advantages to using Healthmark’s Flexible Inspection Scope (FIS-007) with WatchDog Endo AI:



  • Best image/video quality with FIS-007 - image quality matters and the Flexible Inspection Scope is best in class.
  • Ready-to-go AI on the FIS (not currently available on other units/borescopes).
  • Ease of standardization across the system with FIS and Watchdog Endo AI together.
  • Ease of software upgrade/deployment of new tech as it becomes available - both with FIS and Watchdog Endo AI.
  • Support of the team - the implementation team is brilliant, offering best-in-class products, training and support!
