Validation of the Milan Score Using Prolonged Wireless PH Monitoring

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Milan Score, a high‐resolution manometry‐derived tool, predicts pathological GERD on 96‐h wireless pH monitoring with high specificity and positive predictive value, maintaining robust discriminative performance across both typical and atypical symptom profiles and outperforming single HRM parameters as a standalone manometric parameter.

Effect of Linaclotide on Colonic Motility Assessed With Intraluminal Colonic High‐Resolution Manometry in Healthy Subjects. An Acute, Open Label, Randomized, Crossover, Reader‐Blinded Study

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Our study showed that, in healthy controls, acute administration of linaclotide increased the total number of long‐distance propagating and the pre‐prandial pancolonic pressurizations. Further studies need to address whether the observed effects are directly or indirectly mediated by the mechanism of action of this useful medication to treat chronic ...

Wireless capsule endoscopy: Perspectives beyond gastrointestinal bleeding

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2014
Wireless capsule endoscopy (CE) is a technology developed for the endoscopic exploration of the small bowel. The first capsule model was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 2001, and its first and essential indication was occult gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding.

Imaging Fluorophore-Labelled Intestinal Tissue via Fluorescence Endoscope Capsule

Proceedings, 2018
The authors have developed a wireless fluorescence imaging capsule endoscope, potentially capable of detecting early signs of disease in the human intestine which can be missed by white-light imaging (WLI) capsule endoscopy (Figure 1).

Highlight Removal From Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Images

IEEE Journal of Translational Engineering in Health and Medicine
Mirror reflections and highlights are commonly observed in images captured by wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE), leading to image blurring or distortion, which increases the difficulty for doctors to observe and analyze gastrointestinal images.

The future of wireless capsule endoscopy

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2008
We outline probable and possible developments with wireless capsule endoscopy. It seems likely that capsule endoscopy will become increasingly effective in diagnostic gastrointestinal endoscopy. This will be attractive to patients especially for cancer or varices detection because capsule endoscopy is painless and is likely to have a higher take up ...
