Abstract:In recent years, simultaneous magnetic actuation and localization (SMAL) for active wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) has been intensively studied to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the examination. In this paper, we propose an autonomous magnetic navigation framework for active WCE that mimics the "insertion" and "withdrawal" procedures performed by an expert physician in conventional colonoscopy, thereby enabling efficient and accurate navigation of a robotic capsule endoscope in the intestine with min… Show more
