Abstract: A device, system and method may enable the obtaining of in vivo images from within body lumens or cavities, such as images the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, where the data such as image data is typically transmitted or otherwise sent to a receiving system in compressed or diluted form. The image may be reconstructed and for example displayed to a user.

Abstract: An in-vivo sensing system and a method for creating a summarized graphical presentation of a data stream captured in-vivo. The graphical presentation may be in the form of for example a color bar. The color bar may be a fixed display along side a streaming display of the data stream. A cursor or other indicator may move along the fixed color bar as the data stream is displayed and/or streamed so as to indicate to a health professional what part of the data stream may be currently displayed. The color content in the color bar may map out the data stream and give indication of the location of anatomical sites as well as possible locations of pathology.

Abstract: A system and method for determining the path length through a body lumen, for example to a specified location, is described. A location detection system may identify the location in space of an in-vivo device over time. A path-length detection unit may use data from the location detection system to determine a path traveled by an in-vivo device. A site of interest along that path may be identified. The distance of the site of interest from at least one end point of a body lumen may be determined.

Abstract: A system and method may display an image stream, where an original image stream may be divided into two or more subset images streams, each subset image stream being displayed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. The images may be displayed fused. The images may be collected from an ingestible capsule traversing the GI tract.

Abstract: A method and system to display combined information about an in-vivo lumen using several in vivo devices as data sources. A method is provided for interfacing different in vivo devices and viewing integrated results, on a combined display, by receiving in vivo data of at least two in vivo sensing procedures and analyzing the in vivo data to produce the combined representation. The combined representation may be displayed to a user during the course of an in vivo sensing procedure, and the in vivo data of an in vivo sensing procedure may be received and/or analyzed to produce a combined representation in real time.

Abstract: A system and method may display an image stream, where an original image stream may be divided into two or more subset images streams, each subset image stream being displayed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Post processing may be used to fuse images shown simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. The images may be collected from an ingestible capsule traversing the GI tract.

Abstract: A system, device and method for a real time viewing of an in-vivo site. The in-vivo sensing system may include, for example an in-vivo sensing device (4), a receiver/recorder (6), a workstation (50), a portable device (40) and/or a portable memory (60). The receiver/recorder, the workstation and the portable device may display a stream of images while still downloading images from the receiver/recorder.

Abstract: A system and method to model a tracking curve of an in-vivo device capturing in-vivo data of the colon is provided. Data analysis is performed on a raw tracking curve to identify one or more milestone data points that correspond to defined locations in the colon. A modeled path may be defined between and along the selected milestone data points. Raw tracking curve data may be translated to modeled data along the modeled path. The modeled tracking curve may be displayed alongside a streaming display of captured in-vivo image frames of the colon.

Abstract: A device, system, and method for reducing image data using spatially varying reduction are described. Images may be captured from an in-vivo device, while the reduced images may be transmitted via wireless communications. Reduction may be achieved by selecting a spatial area of interest on an image frame, dividing the spatial area of interest into one or more sub-regions, reducing each sub-region by a defined reduction ratio according to the spatial properties of said sub-region, and transmitting image data from spatial area of interest.

Abstract: A data recorder adapted for processing sensed data received from an in-vivo sensing device. The sensed data may be image data of images captured by an imager of the in-vivo sensing device and the processing may be image processing.

Abstract: A method and system for in-vivo sensing includes transmitting data that relates to data stored in a memory area located in the sensing device. The data that relates to data stored in a memory area may be transmitted in a data block, and the data block may include sensory data. The data that relates to data stored in a memory area may be received, recorded, displayed, processed or used in any suitable way, for example, to generate commands to the sensing device.

Abstract: An in-vivo sensing system and a method for creating a summarized graphical presentation of a data stream captured in-vivo. The graphical presentation may be in the form of for example a color bar. The color bar may be a fixed display along side a streaming display of the data stream. A cursor or other indicator may move along the fixed color bar as the data stream is displayed and/or streamed so as to indicate to a health professional what part of the data stream may be currently displayed. The color content in the color bar may map out the data stream and give indication of the location of anatomical sites as well as possible locations of pathology.

Abstract: An in-vivo imaging system and a method for operation. The system may include an in-vivo imaging device having a light source and an imager, and a processor to process a control signal produced based on two or more images captured by the imager and to use the control signal to adjust the timing of the imaging of the imager. The processor may be an integral part of an external unit, or may be an integral part of the in-vivo imaging device.
