Abstract
An autoclavable endoscope suitable for attachment to a camera while hot. The structure of the endoscope adapted for attachment to the camera lens adapter presents a flat, co-planar proximal face, substantially devoid of grooves and crevices, and minimizes the space between the scope optics and the camera optics, thereby minimizing the volume of hot air that might be trapped between the endoscope and the camera.
