A Closer Look
How the LT-300HD Supports Digital Vulvoscopy
Taking a closer look using magnified high-definition imaging, shared viewing and image capture.
Conversations about vulvar health often begin with uncomfortable symptoms and discussions around Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). The Lutech LT-300HD offers a way to bring visible anatomy into those conversations during vulvoscopy. Its screen-based design provides a full visual examination that can be shared. Views of the vulva, vestibule and clitoral structures can be magnified in high definition with the addition of shared screen viewing and electronic image documentation.
Magnified Visualization, On Screen
A large integrated HD device screen replaces the traditional binocular eyepiece for a more comfortable, less invasive exam. For clinicians who perform vulvoscopy, Lutech’s digital system primarily changes their viewing position. Instead of leaning forward to use binocular eyepieces, clinicians sit upright and view the examination on a digital display.
The digital format makes screen-based viewing part of the examination experience.
The LT-300HD provides a magnified view of vulvar anatomy and visible tissue findings on a large high-definition device screen or on a connected monitor or laptop.
A Shared View for Patient Conversations
The 2025 AUA/SUFU/AUGS Guideline on Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause, endorsed by ISSWSH and The Menopause Society, emphasizes individualized clinical evaluation and shared decision-making. As one of the clinical principles states, “Clinicians should educate patients.”
Since vulvar anatomy can be difficult to describe with words alone, digital vulvoscopy aids in the conversation. With the LT-300HD, shared digital visualization offers an additional educational resource for patients who wish to see the anatomy being discussed. Patients see exactly what is being examined on a connected monitor or laptop.
This screen-based view creates opportunities to explain anatomical landmarks and visible observations during the examination, educating the patient about any findings or treatment options.
Image Capture for Documentation
Beyond real-time viewing, the LT-300HD supports image capture for documentation in electronic workflows. In addition to connecting to a monitor and laptop for shared visualization during the examination, the LT-300HD captures HD imagery and seamlessly connects to patient EMRs.
The LT-300HD allows clinicians to record HD video and capture high-resolution still images hands-free with a foot pedal control. The images are then saved to patient records using the LutechViewer software. The documentation is often accessed to compare the treatment’s progress.
The LutechViewer software, included with all Lutech digital colposcopes, attaches images to the majority of EMR systems, including Epic, Cerner, eClinical Works and Athena.
Relevant CPT codes for vulvoscopy include 56820 (without biopsy) and 56821 (with biopsy).
A Digital Perspective on Vulvar Health
The LT-300HD brings together eyepiece-free viewing, optical magnification, high-definition imaging and shared viewing in a digital examination workflow for a more comfortable exam. For practices using traditional vulvoscopy, upgrading to the digital features supports a closer view of anatomy, an opportunity for shared patient education, and high-definition image capture.
