Wireless Capsule Endoscopy

2012
Wireless video capsule endoscopy (VCE) was first introduced in 2000 and has become the diagnostic test of choice for obscure gastrointestinal bleeding. VCE has also been successfully utilized in patients to diagnose small bowel tumors, Celiac disease, NSAID-induced ulcers, anemia, and Crohn’s disease.

The development and application of wireless capsule endoscopy

International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery, 2004
The introduction of the Video Capsule Endoscope (VCE) by Given Imaging Ltd. (Yoqneam, Israel) in 2001, and its subsequent approval by the FDA as a first line tool in the detection of abnormalities of the small bowel, is indicative of the rapid acceptance of capsule endoscopy by the practicing gastroenterological community.

The Clinical Utility of Wireless Capsule Endoscopy

Digestive Diseases and Sciences, 2004
Capsule endoscopy is a new method of assessing small bowel disease. Current literature has identified a role in obscure gastrointestinal bleeding and evidence for its use in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is increasing. Use in other settings such as surveillance of polyposis syndromes and assessment of patients with abdominal pain has been ...

Wireless Capsule Endoscopy video segmentation

2009 IEEE International Workshop on Medical Measurements and Applications, 2009
Interpretation of WCE video is nowadays largely left to the visual inspection of a medical specialist. This tedious and time consuming task could greatly benefit from techniques that automatically classify and exclude from further processing the non-relevant frames in the video.

Wireless Capsule endoscopy video summary

2010 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics, 2010
Wireless Capsule endoscopy (WCE) has been developed to allow direct view of the entire small bowel in human body in a noninvasive manner for the first time. But the visual inspection of a large number of video frames produced in each examination poses a tedious task to physicians.

Wireless power transmission in endoscopy capsules

Biomedical Engineering / Biomedizinische Technik, 2019
Abstract The operating life of endoscopy capsules is limited by the batteries needed for use. The capacity of corresponding batteries, however, is too short to cover the total period of gastrointestinal transit. To overcome this limitation, a novel kind of wireless power transmission was used.

Transmitter antennas for wireless capsule endoscopy

2012 International SoC Design Conference (ISOCC), 2012
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) has conquered some limitations of traditional diagnosing tools, such as the comfortlessness of the cables and the inability of examining small intestine section. However, this technique is still far from satisfactory and requires some feasible improvements.

Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Color Video Segmentation

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2008
This paper describes the use of color image analysis to automatically discriminate between oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, and colon tissue in wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE). WCE uses "pill-cam" technology to recover color video imagery from the entire gastrointestinal tract.

Moveable wireless capsule endoscopy

2013 International SoC Design Conference (ISOCC), 2013
This paper presents the development of wireless capsule endoscopy equipped with movement mechanism. The mechanism will make the wireless capsule to move within the human intestine in order to avoid jamming within the place. The design makes the capsule moving like an insect, which is different from the existing products.

Wireless capsule endoscopy video automatic segmentation

2012 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2012
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is an advanced technology that allows diagnosis inside human's digestive tract without invasiveness, however, it is a time-consuming task for clinicians to diagnose due to the large number of frames in video. A novel and efficient algorithm is proposed in this paper to help clinicians segment the WCE video automatically
