Abstract

A capsule-type endoscope is disclosed. Information related to position and movement of the capsule-type endoscope inserted into a body are checked and a frame rate is controlled according to a digestive organ in which the capsule-type endoscope is located based upon the information, so as to capture every digestive organ inside the body by using one capsule-type endoscope. Also, the frame rate canbe controlled according to a moving velocity in each digestive organ, thus to reduce unnecessary power consumption, resulting in a decrease of an operation time of the capsule-type endoscope having alimited battery capacity. In addition, an amount of captured images can be reduced by effectively obtaining images according to the moving velocity in each digestive organ and a time taken by a doctor for a medical examination can be shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The field relates to an endoscope, and more particularly, to a capsule endoscope capable of controlling the frame rate of an image. Background technique [0002] A large number of methods for collecting medical information in the human body have been developed. [0003] In general, endoscopes have been used as a method of collecting image information, which is a kind of medical information inside a human body. The endoscope takes images inside the body, and then transmits the taken images to external devices via communication cables such as wires and optical fibers. However, if the cable is used in an endoscope, the cable remains in the mouth (oral cavity) even after the endoscope is inserted into the body, causing severe pain to the patient. In addition, the cable should be operated to adjust the area for image capturing, thereby causing various side effects, for example, causing damage to internal organs in the body and the like. [0004] In order...
