Functional Optical Fibers with Tailored Side Emission from Modified Rod‐in‐Tube Preforms
A modified rod‐in‐tube method enables fabrication of functional optical fibers with tailored light‐diffusing properties. The approach incorporates optically active species at a well‐defined radial position within an otherwise homogeneous fiber core. Using lanthanide ions and noble metal nanoparticles as active species demonstrates wavelength conversion

Wireless capsule endoscopy has become the first imaging tool for small bowel examination. Recently, new capsule endoscopy applications have been developed, such as esophageal capsule endoscopy and colon capsule endoscopy. Clinical trials results have shown that colon capsule endoscopy is feasible, accurate and safe in patients suffering from colonic ...

Capsule Endoscopy – State of the Art [PDF]
Capsule endoscopy is a new technology that was recently introduced into clinical practice for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases. As of today, three different capsule types have been produced, designed for the exploration of the small bowel (PillCam SB), the esophagus (PillCam ESO) and the colon (PillCam Colon).

Learning Friction Model for Tethered Capsule Robot [PDF]
With the potential applications of capsule robots in medical endoscopy, accurate dynamic control of the capsule robot is becoming more and more important. In the scale of a capsule robot, the friction between capsule and the environment plays an essential role in the dynamic model, which is usually difficult to model beforehand.

Clinically Relevant Metallic Nanoparticles in Tuberculosis Diagnosis and Therapy
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health challenge, with drug‐resistant strains exacerbating the issue. Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) show promise in TB diagnosis as sensor probes and in combination therapy with antimycobacterial drugs, requiring further pre‐clinical and clinical research for clinical translation.

The Future of Capsule Endoscopy
Small-bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) was introduced 11 years ago by Given Imaging and is becoming the gold standard for small-bowel examination. This major step in the field of digestive medicine has opened the possibility of promising non-invasive explorations of the esophagus, stomach, and colon.
