Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A scope adapter system includes an adapter body coupled to a handle of a scope device, a rigid shaft, and a mounting mechanism removably coupled to the shaft. The shaft includes a shaft lumen which is sized and shaped to slidably receive a flexible elongated member of the device. A distal end of the lumen is sized so that, when a distal end of the member is received therein, the distal end of the member is snugly held so that an aim of the shaft aims the distal end of the member. The mechanism mounts a proximal end of the shaft to the body so that, when the body is coupled to the handle, the mechanism is mounted on the body and coupled to the shaft and the member is inserted into the lumen so that movement of the handle effects corresponding movements of the distal end of the member.
