A Miniaturized Capsule Endoscope Equipped a Marking Module for Intestinal Tumor Localization.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
This study introduces a miniaturized capsule endoscope equipped with a marking module for intestinal tumor or lesion localization. The design concept is based on an active wireless capsule endoscope platform that is manipulated by an external electro...

Investigation of Current Control for a New Bi-directional Linear Capsule Robot.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
In this paper, a bi-directional linear capsule robot (capsulbot) for potential applications in Gastrointestinal (GI) tract inside human body is studied. Compared with the conventional endoscope limited by its poor locomotion and steering capabilities...

Predictive Tilt Compensation for Robot Assisted Magnetic Capsule Endoscope.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Wireless capsule endoscopes provide a painless and non-invasive alternative to the flexible endoscope in various applications of the gastrointestinal tract diagnosis. Operating a wireless capsule endoscope in the colon may benefit from an active posi...
