Endoscopic Procedures III: Video Capsule Endoscopy01:28

Endoscopic Procedures III: Video Capsule Endoscopy

Capsule endoscopy, or wireless or video capsule endoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure for examining the entire gastrointestinal tract. Patients swallow a capsule about the size of a vitamin tablet. The capsule is equipped with a transmitter, a battery, an LED light source, and a color video camera to capture images throughout the gastrointestinal tract. This procedure is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, tumors, polyps, ulcers, unexplained...
Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP01:26

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due to...
Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy01:29

Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:
Endoscopic Procedures II: Colonoscopy01:25

Endoscopic Procedures II: Colonoscopy

The colon, or large intestine, is the final segment of the digestive system. Its primary functions include absorbing water and vitamins produced by gut bacteria and transforming waste from liquid to solid to form stool. In adults, the large intestine is approximately 5 feet long and consists of four main sections:
Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy01:26

Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

Sigmoidoscopy and laparoscopy are distinct medical procedures that enable physicians to internally inspect different parts of the GI tract. Although they serve different purposes, each is essential for diagnosing and, in some cases, treating various medical conditions.
Sigmoidoscopy
Sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible sigmoidoscope equipped with a light source and camera to examine the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure involves inserting the tube through the anus...

Murine Endoscopy for In Vivo Multimodal Imaging of Carcinogenesis and Assessment of Intestinal Wound Healing and Inflammation

Published on: August 26, 2014

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Endoscopic Technology

Background:

  • Computed virtual chromoendoscopy, such as Fuji Intelligent Color Enhancement (FICE), enhances mucosal surface contrast by decomposing images by wavelength.
  • This technology aims to improve the detection of gastrointestinal polyps and optimize imaging settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic quality of FICE for detecting gastrointestinal polyps.
  • To determine the optimal FICE channel setting for endoscopic imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Thirty-one patients underwent upper endoscopy using Fujinon 1.3-million-pixel endoscopes with zoom.
  • Six experienced endoscopists analyzed 31 endoscopy reports, including conventional and FICE images, using a visual scale to rate FICE channels and image quality.

Main Results:

  • FICE channel 4 was identified as the best channel in 39.7% of cases and among the top three in 77%.
  • FICE images were rated superior to conventional images in 94.1% of reports (p<0.0001).
  • Computed virtual chromoendoscopy achieved a higher median pit pattern score (9.43) than conventional endoscopy (7.08) (p<0.001).

Conclusions:

  • FICE channel 4 images demonstrated significant superiority over conventional endoscopic images.
  • Computed virtual chromoendoscopy facilitates enhanced analysis of pit patterns and mucosal junctions.
  • This technology aids in identifying gastroduodenal polyps and supporting complete polypectomy.
