Auf Strahlung ansprechendes laparoskopisches Instrument

摘要

A laparoscopic instrument is provided having a hand-grippable base (12) to which an elongate accessing tube (14) is connected which extends to a tip (16). Extending inwardly from the tip (16) is a detection support region (18) within which is formed a radiation transmissive window (22). Immediately spaced from and behind the window (22) there is positioned a detecting crystal (60) such as cadmium telluride which is retained in a crystal mount structure (26) having an architecture designed for minimizing noise generation occasioned from microphonic (piezoelectric) phenomena and the like.
