as required , detailed embodiments of the present invention are disclosed herein ; however , it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention that may be embodied in various and alternative forms . the figures are not necessarily to scale ; some features may be exaggerated or minimized to show details of particular components . therefore , specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting , but merely as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ the present invention . the invention , hereinafter the “ speculuview ” system , is an apparatus comprising an optical disposable speculum , an image acquisition system comprising a treatment module and an image analysis and control unit . the described system may be used as a colposcopy imaging system . it may comprise a treatment module to apply an ablation technique of abnormal cells ( e . g ., cancerous cells ) in the examined area ( e . g ., cervical uterine ). one of the aims of the speculuview system is to assure detailed observation with high resolution of objects located within a relatively wide area of the examined area ( e . g ., uterine cervix cavity ), and enable accurate ablation of abnormal cells ( e . g ., cancerous cells in the uterine cervix ). low cost and high resolution colposcopy could have a direct impact on improving women &# 39 ; s health care , reducing examination costs and avoidance of embarrassment . this low - cost hand - held image acquisition device can also assist the expert colposcopist , and improve screening cost - effectiveness in developing countries . colposcopy is the leading diagnostic method that is used to detect cervical intraepithelial neoplasia ( cin ) and cancer , together with cytological screen ( papanicolaou smear — pap smear ). the purpose of a colposcopic examination is to identify and rank the severity of lesions , so that biopsies representing the highest - grade abnormality can be taken , if necessary . a green filter may be used to accentuate vasculature . during the examination , a 3 - 5 % acetic acid solution is applied to the cervix , causing abnormal and metaplastic epithelia to turn white . cervical cancer precursor lesions and invasive cancer exhibit certain distinctly abnormal morphologic features that can be identified by colposcopy examination . in the speculuview system , the optical disposable speculum is assembled on the image acquisition system on each examination . it protects the patient from cross contamination . it creates a clean environment for the image acquisition system , to prevent it from being contaminated ( fig1 a and fig1 b ). this design enables a shortened time between examinations . there are two optional image acquisition designs presented herein : a single imaging sensor system comprised of a color cmos or ccd ( fig5 a ) and an illumination system based on leds or ld ( laser diode ), and a dual imaging sensors system design comprised of two different cmos or ccd — color and monochrome ( fig5 b ) and an illumination system based on leds or ld ( laser diode ). the illumination system comprises bright field illumination 1313 ( shown in fig3 b , fig4 ), dark field external ring illumination 1311 ( shown in fig3 a , fig3 b ), a uv led source for fluorescence and or autofluorescence and / or a multi spectral source 1312 ( e . g ., white and or ir leds ) ( shown in fig3 b , fig4 ). the illumination system comprises uv led source light for fluorescence image analysis in addition to bright and dark field white light sources . based on previous research , abnormal cancerous cells are highly emphasized by this kind of illumination . the optical design comprises a dichroic mirror that transmits the light below 400 nm and reflects the light above 440 nm . this beam splitter is well suited for such fluorescence measurements . in order to reach depth perception , there are three main features in this system . 1 ) the system has the option for a large depth of field . 2 ) using the contiguous zoom feature , the system can receive a sequence of different images of the same ( x , y ) position at different focal planes . in this method , good perception of the inspected object depth can be attained . 3 ) the system applies dark field illumination in different angles using an external illumination ring element . as a non - limiting example , the system may be designed to divide and control the illumination ring ( e . g ., two sections ). by use of one section of the ring in the first image and a second section of the ring in the second image the system may provide depth perception of the inspected object . high resolution over the whole field is assured in order to insure detection of all cancerous cells in one image . using these three methods the system can identify , for example , the tumor cell thickness , and its surface topology . the image acquisition system is connected to the image analysis and control unit ( fig7 ). the image analysis and control unit is a software package which may be implemented on special design hardware or a standard pc with custom hardware . the image acquisition system may comprise an integrated laser ablation module for treatment of abnormal cells ( e . g ., cancerous cells in the uterine cervix ). the image acquisition system may acquire multi spectral images and / or live video . the image analysis and control unit automatically adjusts the intensity of each illumination mode independently ( i . e ., white ( bright field and or dark field illumination ), multi spectral illumination ( e . g . uv and or ir )). data acquired from the examined area ( e . g ., uterine cervix ) by the image acquisition system is analyzed by the image analysis and control unit which provides tissue diagnosis . in case there are abnormal cells , the image analysis and control unit identifies the suspicious regions which should be treated ( e . g ., cell ablation system ). in order to prevent stray light , the optical disposable speculum window may be designed with a layer of elastic material which creates a fine - tuned coupling between the optical disposable speculum and the image acquisition system . this design compensates the mechanical , manufacturing and assembly tolerances 1221 ( shown in fig2 b ). the optical disposable speculum may be coupled with an rfid ( radio frequency identification ) unique tag . the image analysis and control unit will assure the use of a brand new optical disposable speculum for each patient per each examination . the rfid tag number is identified uniquely by a serial number / lot number . the tag number which is coupled with the optical disposable speculum will be specified in the patient examination file . it can also assure the use of a brand new optical disposable speculum for each patient per each examination by snaps 1212 which break after severance with the image acquisition system ( shown in fig3 a ). the image analysis and control unit is able to analyze white and / or multi spectral images taken under the use of reflectance and auto - fluorescence reagents ( i . e ., contrast agents ). the image analysis and control unit is based on an open , modular , and feature - based architecture . analysis methods are designed for use with one or more imaging sensors , white and / or multi spectral illumination types . the image analysis and control unit may provide methods based on unique algorithms for accurate removal of abnormal cells ( e . g ., identifying their margin ). the algorithm in the image analysis and control unit will create a map of contours , namely edges between healthy and abnormal cells . reflectance and / or fluorescence images are acquired from the abnormal cells . optionally , a short flash may acquire the reflectance and / or fluorescence images . various reflectance and fluorescent images may be acquired under the same , or different , configurations of illumination . abnormal cells may be destroyed by ablation . the ablation procedure will be operated automatic or by manual control of the set of adjustable mirrors controller that uses output indications of candidate abnormal cells . upon completion of destruction by ablation , additional reflectance or fluorescence images will be acquired to verify the completion of the procedure , resulting in no abnormal cells being left . the laser ablation system may comprise an imaging sensor , flexible / solid optical fiber , laser system , set of mirrors near the laser head and near the beam splitter which is located near the tip of the fiber , and an optical system that will locally image the tested area . a long pass filter ( e . g ., gg475 ) may be located between the lens and the fibers in order to subtract the violet / uv light from the image for fluorescence . the laser ablation system may be located in the area of the imaging sensors 1315 ( shown in fig3 b ). a pulsed laser beam is passed through a collimating optics , a set of mirrors , a fiber bundle , another mirror , a beam splitter and second focusing optics . there are two optional places to use a motorized adjustable set of mirrors . in the case where a straight solid fiber bundle is used , the laser beam location can be adjusted using the mirrors near the laser , otherwise the adjustable steering mirror may be positioned in front of the beam splitter near the edge of the fiber bundle and its tilted angles controlled remotely . this adjustable set of mirrors receives a set of angles / travels as an output from the image analysis report or a set of points from the physician manually to manipulate the orientation laser beam to selectively impinge on desired locations of malignant tissue to be destroyed . the image analysis and control unit may use picture archiving and control system ( pacs ) methods for image archiving and management . overcoming deficiencies of prior art colposcope systems , the system according to the present invention provides : an optical disposable speculum with a working channel for the physician a small camera with multi spectral internal illumination systems : bright field leds ( through the lens ) illumination dark field leds illumination with a specific illumination angle an internal uv illumination (“ through the lens illumination ”) for abnormal cell detection by fluorescence or auto fluorescence an internal ir illumination (“ through the lens illumination ”) an opportunity to examine with sufficient resolution fine objects at a short distance with maximum patient protection optional in -
