BACKGROUND: Celiac disease is one of the most common diseases in the world. Capsule endoscopy is an alternative way to visualize the entire small intestine without invasiveness to the patient. It is useful to characterize celiac disease, but hours ar...
The interpretation and analysis of wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) recordings is a complex task which requires sophisticated computer aided decision (CAD) systems to help physicians with video screening and, finally, with the diagnosis. Most CAD sys...

In the recent years, wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) technology has played a very important role in diagnosing diseases within the gastro intestinal (GI) tract of human beings. The WCE device captures images of the GI tract of patient with a certain...
The gastrointestinal endoscopy in this study refers to conventional gastroscopy and wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE). Both of these techniques produce a large number of images in each diagnosis. The lesion detection done by hand from the images above...

OBJECTIVE: This study aims to introduce a biopsy capsule robot based on the negative pressure suction principle to achieve liquid sampling in the digestive tract.
Early screening for gastrointestinal (GI) diseases is critical for preventing cancer development. With the rapid advancement of deep learning technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly prominent in the early detection of GI dise...
