Enhanced Diagnostic Yield with Prolonged Small Bowel Transit Time during Capsule Endoscopy
BACKGROUND The effect of small bowel transit time (SBTT) on diagnostic yield during capsule endoscopy (CE) has not been previously evaluated. Our study aim was to assess the effect of SBTT on the likelihood of detecting intestinal pathology during CE. METHODS We reviewed collected data on CE studies performed at Johns Hopkins Hospital from January 2006 to June 2007. In patients investigated f...
متن کاملVideo capsule endoscopy: procedure, indications and diagnostic yield.
Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) is a new noninvasive imaging technique for the complete small bowel. It provides good to excellent visualisation of the mucosa of the small bowel and has a high diagnostic yield in selected patients with gastrointestinal blood loss of suspected small bowel origin and in patients with Crohn's disease. In comparison with small bowel X-ray and push enteroscopy, diagno...
متن کاملDiagnostic System for Intestinal Motility Disfunctions Using Video Capsule Endoscopy
Wireless Video Capsule Endoscopy is a clinical technique consisting of the analysis of images from the intestine which are provided by an ingestible device with a camera attached to it. In this paper we propose an automatic system to diagnose severe intestinal motility disfunctions using the video endoscopy data. The system is based on the application of computer vision techniques within a mach...
متن کاملProlonged small-intestinal transit time in cystic fibrosis.
A lactulose hydrogen breath test was performed on 10 patients with cystic fibrosis and 15 control subjects matched for age and sex. All normal subjects had a fasting breath hydrogen concentration of less than 20 ppm. In contrast, seven of the patients with cystic fibrosis had high concentrations (25-170 ppm), which fell to 20 ppm or below on prolonged fasting (14-23 hours). Two patients showed ...
متن کاملCapsule endoscopy as a panenteric diagnostic tool.
The author offers a resumé of capsule endoscopy as a diagnostic modality in the gastro-intestinal tract. Capsule endoscopy (CE) was first described in 2000 and is possibly one of the most important advances in gastro-intestinal diagnostics, since the introduction of endoscopy as a diagnostic modality. The swallowed pill camera shows images, as it is propagated through the gastro-intestinal trac...
