PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide medical equipment capable of easily and clearly observing an observation target such as a blood vessel, a lymph vessel, nerves or the like present under biological tissues without spoiling workability in treating the biological tissues at the periphery of a portion under observation.SOLUTION: Medical equipment includes: a gripping means 1 which has a pair of gripping parts 1a, 1b gripping biological tissues lying over the observation target and adjacent to an observation-target region and a pair of distance control means 2a, 2b which are set up on surfaces facing the pair of gripping parts 1a, 1b, on at least either of which a lighting means 3 irradiating the biological tissues with light is equipped, and which make the emission part 3a of the lighting means 3 come close to the observation target present under the biological tissues. The lighting means 3 is such that the direction of the axis of the irradiated light is different from a direction in which both of the tip end parts 2a1, 2b1 of the pair of distance control means 2a, 2b with the pair of gripping parts 1a, 1b gripping the biological tissues, are connected to each other.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】生物組織下に存在する血管、リンパ管、神経などの観察対象物を、観察している部位周辺の生物組織を処置するための作業性を損なうことなく簡便かつ鮮明に観察することの可能な医療機器を提供する。【解決手段】観察対象物を覆う観察対象領域近傍の生物組織を把持する一対の把持部1a,1bを有する把持手段1と、一対の把持部1a,1bの対向面上に設けられ、且つ、少なくともその一方に生物組織に光を照射する照明手段3を備えた、生物組織下に存在する観察対象物に照明手段3の出射部3aを近づけるための一対の距離制御手段2a,2bと、を有し、照明手段3は、照射光軸の方向が、一対の把持部1a,1bが生物組織を把持した状態における一対の距離制御手段2a,2bの両先端部2a1,2b1を結ぶ方向とは異なる。【選択図】図1
