A medical magnetic capsule endoscope system

Abstract

The invention provides a medical magnetic capsule endoscope system which comprises a capsule endoscope, a receiving jacket, an external work station and a capsule positioner. The capsule endoscope comprises a transparent capsule shell, a camera head, a lighting device, an optoelectronic switch, an image information processing circuit, a radiofrequency transmission device, a power device, a magnetic field sensor and a small magnet. The capsule endoscope, the receiving jacket, the external work station and the capsule positioner form the system through induction of a magnetic field and transmission of wireless signals. When the total system works, information of the capsule endoscope in a human body can be displayed on a special medical image display of the external work station in real time, and movement of the capsule endoscope in the human body can be controlled by a software platform in the external work station. The medical magnetic capsule endoscope system realizes a capsule endoscope image real-time displaying function and controllable and positionable functions, and has qualitative leap as compared with the prior art.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system device, in particular to a medical system device. Background technique [0002] Conventionally known capsule endoscopes include an imaging unit equipped with a solid-state imaging device, an illumination device using LEDs, and a wireless communication device, etc., and are built into a capsule case of a size that can be swallowed from the mouth. This capsule endoscope can photograph the stomach, intestines, etc. while passing through the body cavity when the subject swallows it from the mouth. Typically, the capsule endoscope with the above structure converts the image of the illuminated surface captured by the camera unit into an electrical signal, and sends it to the outside through the wireless sending device, and the sent signal is received by the external receiving device, and then displayed on the displayed on the device. In the painless and non-invasive state of the human gastrointestinal tract, medica...

Problems solved by technology

However, in such a device, it takes a certain amount of time to take the capsule endoscope out of the package until the examinee swallows it, and during this time all functions of the capsule endoscope have been driven, such as the shooting function and wireless function, etc. , and send the image of this shooting action through the wireless function, etc., it is judged as an invalid image during the diagnosis process, and the diagnosis process of the capsule endoscope cannot be completed well.
