Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

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...

Endoscopic Procedures III: Video Capsule Endoscopy

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,...

Ultrasound II: Endoscopic Ultrasound and FibroScan

Ultrasound II: Endoscopic Ultrasound and FibroScan

Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) and FibroScan are valuable diagnostic tools in gastroenterology and hepatology, each with specific applications and techniques.
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS):

Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

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 IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

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...

Area of Science:

Medical imaging
Optical engineering
Cancer diagnostics

Background:

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is emerging in medicine, primarily with rigid endoscopy for in vivo cancer detection.
Flexible endoscopy offers improved access to difficult anatomical regions but introduces image artifacts.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and validate a hyperspectral imaging system using flexible endoscopy for medical applications.
To create an effective filtering technique for removing fiber optic artifacts from hyperspectral data.

Main Methods:

Developed a hyperspectral imaging system integrated with flexible endoscopy for laryngeal imaging.
Designed a specialized filtering algorithm to eliminate the honeycomb pattern from hyperspectral data.
Evaluated the filter's performance using objective metrics and classification algorithms (unsupervised and supervised).

Main Results:

The developed filtering technique successfully removed the honeycomb pattern from hyperspectral images.
The method minimized information loss, preserving small-area pixel variations crucial for analysis.
Classification performance was significantly improved on pre-processed data compared to raw data and conventional filtering.

Conclusions:

The novel filtering technique effectively removes fiber optic artifacts in flexible hyperspectral endoscopy.
This advancement improves the accuracy of cancer detection by preserving essential image details.
The system demonstrates feasibility for enhanced in vivo medical diagnostics in challenging anatomical sites.
