A system and method for treating a patient may include accessing an anatomical structure with a single-use visualization device, using an imaging capability of the single-use visualization device within the anatomical structure, and, in some instances, providing a visual effect on the anatomical structure. A single-use visualization device is advanced beyond the anatomical structure to and toward another anatomical structure within the patient. The disposable element may be used with or added to a single-use visualization device to complete tasks that are typically performed with a reusable device. 一种用于治疗患者的系统和方法，其可以包括利用单次使用的可视化装置接近解剖结构，使用单次使用的可视化装置在解剖结构内的成像能力，并且在一些情况下，将单次使用的可视化装置推进超过解剖结构到达并朝向患者体内的另一个解剖结构。一次性元件可以与单次使用的可视化装置一起使用或被添加到单次使用的可视化装置，以完成通常利用可重复使用的装置执行的任务。
