2.  Introduction to Capsule Camera
 Conventional Method
 Inside a Capsule Camera
 Working
 Uses
 Advantages
 Drawbacks & Overcomes
 Conclusion

3.  A vitamin pill-sized camera.
 Can travel through Digestive tract.
 Take pictures.
 Helps in diagnosing any problem.

4. • Endoscope is introduced into body.
• Views Internal parts.
• Limited to particular areas.
Endoscope

5. • Diagnostic Imaging System comes in capsule form.
• contains a camera, lights, transmitter and batteries.
• Sends 18 colour images in a second. (overall 50,000)
• Can examine areas of small intestine.
• Size: 26*11 mm.
• Weighs : less than 4 gm.
• Costs ₹35,000.

7. 1. Optical dome
• This shape results in easy orientation of the capsule inside small
intestine
• Helps propel the capsule easily.
• Contains the Light Receiving Window .
2. Lens holder
• It is that part which holds the lens.
• The lens is tightly fixed to the holder so it doesn’t get dislocated.

8. 3. Lens
• The Lens is an essential component of the capsule.
• It is arranged behind the Light Receiving Window.
4. Illuminating LED’S
• Around the Lens & CMOS Image Sensor, four LED’s (Light Emitting
Diodes) are present.
• These plural lighting devices are arranged in donut shape.

9. 5. CMOS Image Sensor
• CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Image Sensor is the
most important part of the capsule.
• Highly sensitive and produces very high quality images.
• It has 140º field of view and can detect objects as small as possible.
6. Battery
• Batteries are button shaped and are two in number.
• The batteries are arranged together just behind the CMOS Image Sensor.
• Disposable and harmless to the body.

10. 7. ASIC Transmitter
• Penultimate component in the capsule.
• The ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit)Transmitter
is arranged behind the Batteries .
• These electrodes are electrically isolated from each other.
8. Antenna
• The Antenna is arranged at the end of the capsule.
• It is enclosed in a dome shaped chamber.

11. 1. Capsule is swallowed by the patient like a conventional pill.
2. It takes images as it is propelled forward by
peristalsis (the involuntary constriction and relaxation in
intestine).
1. A wireless recorder, worn on a belt, receives the images
transmitted by the pill.
4. A computer workstation processes the data and produces a
continuous still images.

12. Storage Of Data On
Computer
(Belt)
Movement Of
Capsule Through The
Digestive System

14. • Crohn's Disease ( a chronic inflammatory disease of digestive tract).
.
• Malabsorption Disorders(small intestine can't absorb enough of nutrients and
fluids).
• Tumors of the small intestine.
• Ulcerative Colitis (causes ulcers in the lining of the large intestine ).
• Treatment Related To Small Bowel Injury.

15. 1. Painless, no side affects or complications.
2. Miniature size, so can move easily through the digestive system.
3. Accurate, precise and effective.
4. Images taken are of very high quality which are sent almost
instantaneously to the data recorder for storage.
5. Made of bio-compatible material, doesn’t cause any harm to the body.

16. .
1. Patients with gastrointestinal structures or narrowing are not good candidates
for this procedure due to the risk of obstruction.
The first drawback is overcome using another product manufactured with the
help of nanotechnology which is the rice- grain sized motor.
2. Impossible to control Camera behavior.
this drawbacks can be overcome using a bi-directional telemetry Camera.

17.  The Given Endoscopy capsule is a latest concept for Medical
Technology of the 21st century.
 Have been beneficial for more than 1.5 million patients.
 First of its kind to be able to provide non-invasive imaging of
the entire small intestine.
 It has brought a revolution in medical field and has been proved
helpful to physicians globally.
