Bronchoscopy using a gastroscope

Bronchoscopy using a gastroscope

Hello

I do not have a bronchoscope in my practice. I do have a Karl Storz flexible gastroscope  with 7.9 mm diameter sheath,  140 cm length and a 2.8mm instrument channel.  Could I use this in large dogs as a bronchoscope? Suggested size limitation? 

I assume that I would need to gas sterilize prior to using as a bronchoscope?

Thank-you
