Fluoroscope
Definition:
(n.) An instrument for observing or exhibiting fluorescence.
Example Sentences:

(4) Awareness of the radiographic and fluoroscopic signs that suggest the diagnosis will aid in the early institution of appropriate supportive therapy.
(5) The authors described a fluoroscopic method of guiding percutaneous needle penetration of the foramen ovale.
