AIM To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis for the diagnostic accuracy of in vivo lesion characterization in colonic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), using optical imaging techniques, including virtual chromoendoscopy (VCE), dye-based chromoendoscopy (DBC), magnification endoscopy and confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE). METHODS We searched Medline, Embase and the Cochrane library....

As the size and complexity of high performance computing applications continue to increase, their computing, storage and connectivity requirements become more and more di cult to accommodate on any single computing platform. The Virtual Computing Environment (VCE) combines heterogeneous computing, storage and network resources into a exible system for the execution of large scale applications. ...

Since its development, video capsule endoscopy (VCE) introduced a new area in the study of small bowel disease. We reviewed and discussed current issues from Korean capsule endoscopy multicenter studies. Main results are as follows: First, there was no significant difference in diagnostic yield according to the method of bowel preparation. Second, VCE represents a reliable and influential scree...

Among the various diagnostic modalities for small bowel hemangioma, video capsule endoscopy (VCE) and double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) can be recommended as part of the work-up in patients with obscure gastrointestinal bleeding (OGIB). DBE is superior to VCE in the accuracy of diagnosis and therapeutic potential, while in most cases total enteroscopy cannot be achieved through only the antegrad...

The Core 3 Research Programme of the Virtual Centre of Excellence in Mobile and Personal Communications (Mobile VCE Core3) takes a generic approach for the co-operation between mobile and broadcasting network, such that the solution is more widely applicable and easily adopted by network operators, service providers and customer owners. This also reflects the industrial reality of the competiti...

Abstract Background Previous studies have shown benefit in performing video capsule endoscopy (VCE) Crohn’s disease (CD) diagnosis, especially cases of an unremarkable ileo-colonoscopy, however data on the role VCE postsurgical follow-up CD patients is lacking. We aimed to evaluate endoscopic activity small bowel (SB) presenting with remission at ileo-colonic anastomosis. Methods retrospectivel...

Iris is one of the most challenging biometric techniques. In many proposed biometric recognition technique, template’s are store in the database for comparison. But there exists a vital problem in storing the template in the database since it can be easily bootlegged. In order to overcome these issues a novel method for person identification by their Iris, through securely storing the template ...

Morphological identification and detailed observation of nematodes usually requires permanent slides, but these are never truly permanent and often prevent the same specimens to be used for other purposes. To efficiently record the morphology of nematodes in a format that allows easy archiving, editing, and distribution, we have assembled two micrographic video capture and editing (VCE) configu...
