Abstract: Described herein are embodiments directed to a remotely controlled bronchoscope arrangement that uses an off-the-shelf hand-held bronchoscope to provide distance between a medical professional and a patient. The bronchoscope arrangement comprises an off-the-shelf hand-held bronchoscope that is remotely controlled by cables that mechanically drive the general movement of the bronchoscope. The bronchoscope generally comprises an insertion tube that extends from a handle, which is bent via an insertion tube articulating actuator and rotated by a rotatable insertion tube cogwheel. The rotatable insertion tube cogwheel is configured to rotate the insertion tube about an axis at least where the insertion tube connects to the handle. The rotatable insertion tube cogwheel positions an insertion tube tip angularly about the axis.
