System and method for controlling running track of capsule endoscope

Abstract

A system for controlling the running track of a capsule endoscope comprises a plurality of electromagnetic coils, an electromagnet power supply system, a microprocessor and a handle control system. The handle control system is electrically connected with the electromagnet power supply system through the microprocessor, the electromagnet power supply system is electrically connected with the electromagnetic coils, the handle control system is pushed in a handheld manner to generate coordinate information, the coordinate information is converted into current amplitude values related to the corresponding electromagnetic coils, the current amplitude values are outputted to the corresponding electromagnetic coils so that the electromagnetic coils generate magnetic field attraction consistent with handle thrust, the running track of the capsule endoscope with a magnet in human intestines and stomach is controlled and adjusted in real time, gastrointestinal walls in a specific direction are shot, and more clear and accurate images are acquired. The invention further provides a method for controlling the running track.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a capsule endoscope, in particular to a control system and a control method capable of controlling and changing the trajectory of the capsule endoscope in the intestines and stomach. Background technique [0002] Capsule endoscope is a new scientific and technological product of medical development. It is widely used in the clinical diagnosis of various medical diseases. It adopts painless and non-invasive monitoring and diagnosis. After oral administration, it enters the human stomach or intestinal tract, and passes through its lens components. Close-up photographs of the internal stomach or intestinal wall conditions for clinical diagnosis and relief of patients' clinical pain. [0003] After the capsule endoscope enters the body, it needs to image the stomach of the human body. The capsule endoscope is in a free state and floats freely in the body fluid. Due to its uncertain position, the captured images are too random. Peop...

[0003] After the capsule endoscope enters the body, it needs to image the stomach of the human body. The capsule endoscope is in a free state and floats freely in the body fluid. Due to its uncertain position, the captured images are too random. People Sometimes it is difficult to judge the orientation of the captured image, the overall situation in the stomach, or the orientation of the tumor. How to determine the orientation of the captured image in the stomach and perform controllable shooting is an important problem to be solved urgently
