Bidirectional digital radio introscope system and method for operating the same

Abstract

The present invention belongs to the field of non-damage endoscope technology, and is one bi-directional digital radio endoscope system for real-time image observation and whole digestive tract check via bi-directional radio communication. The system consists of readio transceiving digital endoscope video camera, portable radio receiving and data transmission unit and computerized controlling and processing unit. The endoscope video camera is equipped with adjustable-angle CCD camera, adjustable-focal length optical lens and lighting device for pick-up of 3D image. The system is operated in one of three operation modes: the united mode of the video camera and the radio receiving and data transmission unit, the united mode of the video camera and computerized controlling and processing unit, and the united mode of the video camera, the united mode of the video camera and computerized controlling and processing unit.

Description

technical field [0001] A two-way digital wireless endoscope system and its working method belong to the technical field of medical endoscopes, in particular to the technical field of an endoscope that transmits endoscope images through radio waves without inserting catheters. Background technique [0002] Gastrointestinal diseases infest countless patients all over the world. At present, endoscopy is the most commonly used and most direct and effective way to check for this disease. Therefore, endoscopic examination system plays an extremely important role in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases. Looking at the existing commonly used endoscopic systems, the transmission of endoscopic images is done through cables, and these systems have to be equipped with guiding intubation tubes, which not only brings a lot of inconvenience to the operation of the system, but also affects the inspection The patient brings a lot of discomfort and pain, and because of the cable transmi...

Problems solved by technology

Looking at the existing commonly used endoscopic systems, the transmission of endoscopic images is done through cables, and these systems have to be equipped with guiding intubation tubes, which not only brings a lot of inconvenience to the operation of the system, but also affects the inspection The patient brought a lot of discomfort and pain, and because of the cable transmission, the parts that the endoscope can inspect were limited, such as the inspection of the small intestine, etc.

With the development of microelectronics technology, there are wireless endoscope systems, but its development is still in its infancy, and the system still has many limitations: for example, the image resolution (90,000 pixels) is not high enough; One-way data communication from the capsule to the outside of the body; the doctor cannot observe the patient’s image in real time; nor can he control the working status of the capsule in the body; due to the limited battery power supply time (6-8 hours), the inspection of the large intestine cannot be realized; Only white light diodes are used, so only two-dimensional image acquisition can be realized.
