Dylan Edwards (asker) Apr 15, 2016:
In the light of the info in Zdeněk's link, which probably applies to all endoscopes, these terms could be translated as 'front-viewing' (prográdní - the optical component is at the front and 'sees ahead') and 'side-viewing' (laterální - optical component at the side). These are my provisional translations.

I can only work out that this = prograde

which from my research means "anticlockwise"

so perhaps the anoscopy is being rotated in an anticlockwise to lateral direction


just surmising

If it's the same with anoscopes, "prográdní" simply means that the optical components (or whatever) and the instrument itself are "in a straight line" (lateral is then clear).
Note from asker:
Thank you! I also note, in your link, "Prográdní optika je „v čele“ přístroje („vidí před sebe“)".
