"But this is not an ordinary capsule, but an intelligent miniature endoscope, which looks like a capsule and integrates multidisciplinary technologies such as camera, image processing and information communication. It can record inspection images and data through the vest. " R&D personnel theory.
It is understood that capsule endoscopy has the characteristics of no intubation, no pain, high pixel definition, stereoscopic imaging, safety and convenience, and avoiding infection.
It is understood that the subjects will wear a "vest" after swallowing the capsule endoscope with water. The vest worn by the examinee is actually an image recorder.
The capsule shoots real-time image data in the gastrointestinal tract at the frequency of 2-8 pictures per second, and finally transmits the digital information of the shot image to the vest. Finally, the "vest" is connected to the imaging workstation, which is operated by the doctor to observe the whole digestive tract comprehensively and capture the pathological changes of the human digestive system.
"After the patient excretes the capsule, he just needs to put it back in the hospital vest," explained the researcher.
The whole detection process is monitored by computer. Under the guidance of three-dimensional dynamic observation, the digital scanning system can accurately detect and locate the diseased parts of organs, especially the digestive system.
