Updates in small bowel imaging and endoscopy.
The field of gastroenterology has had an abundance of technological advances in recent years, especially in the field of endoscopy. These advances are helpful to clinicians approaching gastrointestinal blood loss, especially in the small bowel. The authors report a case of a man who presented to the emergency department with obscure gastrointestinal blood loss. Results of an esophagogastroduode...
متن کاملNovel Imaging Enhancements in Capsule Endoscopy
Video capsule endoscopy that was launched 10 years ago has become a first-line procedure for examining the small bowel. The most common indications for capsule endoscopy are obscure gastrointestinal bleeding, Crohn's disease, polyposis syndromes, and evaluation of patients with complicated celiac disease. The ideal capsule should improve the quality of the image and have a faster frame rate tha...
متن کاملVirtual endoscopy in abdominal MR imaging.
As illustrated in this review, the diagnostic utility of VIE is highly dependent on the individual application. Virtual intraluminal endoscopy does not alter the informational content of the data set; rather, the data is presented in a different manner. In view of the considerable time requirements still associated with the VIE rendering process, the additional diagnostic value gained by VIE mu...
متن کاملSpectroscopic Imaging of Tissues Using Micro-Endoscopy
Recent advances in optics and CCD imaging technology have made possible the advent of small, position sensitive, articulating endoscopes allowing visual access to small cavities within the human body. We present our results for the design, construction and evaluation of a spectrometer capable of measuring molecular fluorescence phenomena as a function of wavelength, position and intensity in sm...
متن کاملAdvances in small bowel imaging--capsule endoscopy.
The small bowel has been a difficult area to examine due to its anatomy, location and relative tortuosity. Capsule technology has revolutionized the imaging of small bowel. Capsule endoscopy has been recommended as the 3rd diagnostic test for patients with obscure bleeding after a normal endoscopic evaluation of the upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. Many studies have established its role ...
