A method comprises receiving a stream of image frames captured by the in vivo device, each frame comprising a plurality of pixels. A summarized image presentation comprising summarized data elements may be generated, each summarized data element corresponding to at least one frame from the image stream. Summarized data elements are generated by ordering pixels of one or more image frames according to a first sorting parameter, sampling the ordered pixels according to a predetermined sampling scheme to acquire a subset of ordered pixels; and combining or appending sampled pixels to form a summarized data element. The summarized data elements are combined to form a summarized image presentation.

The methods include irradiating in-vivo fluids passing through a gap in a housing of an in-vivo device introduced to the GI tract of a subject with a plurality of illumination sources positioned on a first side of a gap; detecting with at least one light detector positioned on the opposite side of the gap and facing the illumination sources, light irradiated by the illumination sources; transmitting a plurality of values representing the light detected over time; converting these values to blood concentration values over time, and comparing the blood concentration values to a predetermined threshold value. Based on the comparison, the method includes determining the type of bleeding profile, such that if a plurality of blood concentration values measured consecutively is above the threshold value, the bleeding profile indicates bleeding.
