AIIMS Delhi Installs First Made‑In‑India Endoscopy System With Advanced Imaging

AIIMS Delhi has installed the country's first endoscopy system that is entirely manufactured in India, placing the new equipment in its gastroenterology department for routine diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

The Made‑In‑India Endoscopy System arrived from a domestic medical‑device supplier and replaces previously imported models, a change highlighted in a report by ThePrint that emphasizes the shift toward locally sourced clinical tools.

Advanced Imaging Features built into the device deliver clearer visual output during endoscopic examinations, allowing physicians to identify abnormalities with greater precision than older equipment.

National Healthcare Strategy views this deployment as a concrete example of India’s effort to boost self‑reliance in critical health technology, potentially lowering long‑term costs and expanding access to modern diagnostics across public hospitals.
