Study on Low-Power Image Processing for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
نویسنده
چکیده
Gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy has been popularly applied for the diagnosis of diseases of the alimentary canal including Crohn’s Disease, Celiac disease and other malabsorption disorders, benign and malignant tumors of the small intestine, vascular disorders and medication related small bowel injury. There are two classes of GI endoscopy; wired active endoscopy and wireless passive capsule endoscopy. The wired active endoscopy can enable efficient diagnosis based on real images and biopsy samples; however, it causes discomfort for the patients to push flexible, relatively bulky cables into the digestive tube. To relief the patients’ discomfort, wireless passive capsule endoscopes are being developed worldwide (1)-(6).

Development of CMOS imager block for capsule endoscope
This paper presents the development of imager block to be associated in a capsule endoscopy system. Since the capsule endoscope is used to diagnose gastrointestinal diseases, the imager block must be in small size which is comfortable for the patients to swallow. In this project, a small size 1.5V button battery is used as the power supply while the voltage supply requirements for other compone...
متن کاملGrid Impedance Estimation Using Several Short-Term Low Power Signal Injections
In this paper, a signal processing method is proposed to estimate the low and high-frequency impedances of power systems using several short-term low power signal injections for a frequency range of 0-150 kHz. This frequency range is very important, and thusso it is considered in the analysis of power quality issues of smart grids. The impedance estimation is used in many power system applicati...

متن کاملEffect of gastric lavage with Hemostasis Powder® on upper gastrointestinal bleeding (Conversion of emergency endoscopy to elective endoscopy)
Background: Gastric lavage has been one of the pillars of the classic treatment for upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) for many years. The present study investigated effect of gastric lavage with hemostatic powder on complications of UGIB. Methods: This clinical trial study was performed on 54 patients who referred to the emergency department during the year 2017-2018. The subjects were di...
متن کاملImage Processing Using Color and Object Information for Wireless Capsule Endoscopy
Wireless capsule endoscopy provides real-time images in the digestive tract. Capsule images are usually low resolution and are diverse images due to travel through various regions of human body. Color information has been a primary reference in predicting abnormalities such as bleeding. Often color is not sufficient for this purpose. In this study, we took morphological shapes into account as a...
