Our self-developed "capsule endoscopy" put on the market

Eating a candy-size "Capsule Endoscope", with the stomach of peristalsis, doctors can understand the patient's entire digestive system. In our country, this non-invasive, no wires, no pain, no cross-contamination check mode can only rely on imports of medical equipment services for minority patients. Recently, from Chongqing City Science Committee was informed that, as the first input clinical diagnosis of digestive diseases — "capsule endoscopy OMOM capsule endoscopy" officially on the market, more patients suffering of diagnosis will significantly reduce.

This is the national 863 plan supported Capsule Endoscope Chongqing Jinshan technology group after three years of scientific and technological development. The system consists of intelligent capsule, image recorder and imaging workstation, its working principle is: patients with as a capsule size smart capsule, with gastrointestinal peristalsis of the digestive tract within the movement, while on the digestive tract wall for camera and digital signal transmission to the patient to carry the image recorder storage, doctors use imaging workstation to understand patients ' entire digestive tract, thus making the diagnosis of disease. Because of micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) technology, intelligent capsule size only as φ 11 × 25 m m, easily swallowed, the last smart capsule with excreta passed out of their own. The entire process, the patient without anesthesia and freedom, and intelligent capsules for one-time use, effectively avoid cross-infection.

"Capsule endoscopy" known as "intelligent capsule endoscopy of digestive tract," also known as "medical wireless endoscopy", it overcomes the traditional push endoscopy tolerance poor flaw, more conducive to the medical staff to make accurate diagnosis, disease is a digestive tract diseases especially small bowel disease diagnosis of the preferred method. Journalists from Chongqing City Science and new technology development and industrialization Office was informed that the current global only Israel, very few countries have successfully developed this kind of capsule endoscopy. "OMOM capsule endoscopy" as China's first generation Capsule Endoscope products, successively in Chengdu West China hospital, Beijing friendship hospital, beidadiyiyiyuan, clinical experiment succeeded, and in March 2005 for the medical device registration certificate ", it is expected that 3 years can be provided to the client to the digestive tract of 15 million" made in China "capsule endoscopy.
