The trends and developments in endoscopy of the coming years are many-sided. Improved fiber-optics and invention of computer technology lead to smaller endoscopes with higher resolution. Electronic image processing makes three dimensional measurement or presentation of objects possible. In endosonography a trend to miniaturization is also obvious. Advances in molecular biology and imaging procedures will strengthen the importance of endoscopy in the future. Moreover a differentiated use of new laser technologies will improve the possibilities of endoscopic diagnosis and therapy. The use of electronic diagnostic documentation systems will contribute to a standardized nomenclature and to a quality-improvement of documentation in the near future. The utilization of modern electronic communication systems will facilitate intra- and interdisciplinary exchange of information.
未来几年内，内窥镜检查的趋势和发展是多方面的。光纤技术的改进和计算机技术的发明，使得内窥镜更小、分辨率更高。电子图像处理使物体的三维测量或呈现成为可能。在超声内镜检查中，小型化趋势也很明显。分子生物学和成像程序的进展将在未来增强内窥镜检查的重要性。此外，新型激光技术的差异化应用将改善内窥镜诊断和治疗的可能性。电子诊断文档系统的使用将在不久的将来有助于实现标准化命名，并提高文档质量。利用现代电子通信系统将促进信息的内部和跨学科交流。
