ABSTRACT:
An optical device is provided for examining the peritonsillar tissue and the area of the throat above the glottis without gagging an alert patient and without the need for the patient to be sedated or semi-comatose. The portion of the device which is inserted into the patient's mouth is cushioned to protect teeth and gums and is covered to provide sterility.
