Welcome to PENTAX Medical
At PENTAX Medical we truly care about the challenges of healthcare professionals. That is why we have evolved from a manufacturer with over 100 years of experience into a trusted partner in endoscopy, delivering advanced technologies that support clinical excellence around the world.





Service
Endoscopic equipment is among the most advanced medical technologies. The devices can only achieve optimal results when maintained properly. A flawless hygiene and original functionality of each device are critical to patient safety.
Innovation
At PENTAX Medical, innovation goes beyond merely advancing technology and developing new products. Our primary goal in everything we do is to enhance the standard of patient care and elevate the quality of healthcare, in alignment with our corporate mission.
MSA
Our Medical Scientific Affairs (MSA) department is dedicated to closing the gap between clinical research and pioneering endoscopic technology. We collaborate closely with healthcare professionals, conduct thorough scientific studies, and provide extensive medical education.
Endoscopy is a craft that cannot be mastered by observation alone, you need to feel the endoscope in your hand. The Forward Academy provides hands-on training and fosters collaboration, creating a hub where physicians learn from mentors and peers, discuss complex cases, and refine their skills.
Joining the Forward Academy ESD training allows endoscopists to gain practical expertise, deepen their clinical understanding, and enhance patient care.

Prof. Rocco Trisolini and his team experienced firsthand how innovative solutions make a difference in practice: “The PlasmaTYPHOON™+ is the perfect compact solution for us, contributing to an overall reduction in time, cost and space needed. Being able to store the endoscope in the PlasmaBAG™ ECO for up to 31 days, the endoscope is ready to use for our patients at any time.”
With PlasmaTYPHOON™+ and PlasmaBAG™ ECO, endoscopes are dried in 1-3 minutes and stored disinfected for up to 31 days*, preventing cross-contamination and ensuring they are always ready – clean, safe, and reliable. We stand with healthcare professionals advancing hygiene and infection prevention in endoscopic care.
