Capsule endoscopy for visualization of the upper GI tract has thus far been experimental and potentially expensive. Our aim was to demonstrate the maneuverability and evaluate the ability to completely visualize and maintain views in the upper GI tract by using a simple magnetic-assisted capsule endoscopy (MACE) system.Twenty-six volunteers were ...

This study used computed tomography modelling of the abdomen to determine the optimal placements of a magnetic capsule endoscope in the stomach that allows complete mucosal visualization and determined the optimal placement of the handheld magnet to aid pyloric traversing.Using multiplanar reformatting, 100 abdominal computed tomography scans were ...

evaluation period. Conclusion: In this small pilot study, use of the Endocuff appeared to improve the ADR by 17%. There were no complications from the use of the cuff although it was electively removed in 3 cases with severe sigmoid colon diverticulosis. Further randomised evaluation of this simple novel device is warranted.

Endoscopy: possibilities and limitations in the management of GIST of the upper GI tract.
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) have been a topic of increasing interest since the discovery of their cellular activation pathway via the receptor for tyrosine kinase (KIT) leading to the possibility of targeted molecular therapy in the form of imatinib mesylate. Endoscopic diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities have also been developing at a
