The Role of Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) in the Detection of Occult Primary Neuroendocrine Tumors [PDF]
Background & Aims: Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms with unclear etiology that may show functioning or non-functioning features. Primary tumor localization often requires integrated imaging. The European Neuroendocrine Tumors Society (ENETS) guidelines proposed wireless-capsule endoscopy (WCE) as a possible ...

Ulcer detection in Wireless Capsule Endoscopy images using deep CNN
Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) has been widely accepted due to its painless method of imaging the entire gastrointestinal tract. In this paper, we propose deep Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) for automatic discrimination of ulcers on different ratios

Transferable Deep Reinforcement Learning With Edge-Contour-Depth Fusion for Autonomous Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Navigation. [PDF]
This study presents an anatomical landmark‐guided DRL framework for autonomous wireless capsule endoscopy navigation. Using a lightweight edge‐contour‐depth fusion module, it achieves over 97% coverage across diverse gastric anatomies. To ensure reliability, a two‐stage sim‐to‐real pipeline with an adaptive dynamic programming controller mitigates ...

Retention of Small Bowel Capsule in a Patient With Remote Small Bowel Resection With a Normal CT Enterography and Patency Capsule Examination. [PDF]
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) uses an electronic small bowel capsule to transmit images of the small bowel to diagnose pathology. In patients at risk for capsule retention, the patency capsule, a radiopaque dissolvable capsule of the same size, may be used to predict that the small bowel capsule will pass through the patient. An abdominal radiograph

Endoscopic findings in patients with Shwachman-Diamond syndrome: A report from the North American Shwachman-Diamond syndrome registry. [PDF]
Abstract Objectives Shwachman–Diamond syndrome (SDS) is an inherited bone marrow failure disorder, and its endoscopic phenotype is poorly defined. We sought to characterize endoscopic findings in patients with genetically confirmed SDS. Methods Retrospective registry study of 45 patients with biallelic Shwachman–Bodian–Diamond syndrome mutations and ...
