Diagnosis and Treatment of Small Bowel Cancers Using Radioactive Gold Nanoparticles and Wireless Fluorescence Capsule Endoscopy
Background: Therapeutic and diagnosis properties of radioactive gold nanoparticle (198-AuNPs) cause them to be suitable for detection and treatment of tumors.Objective: Electrical and optical properties of PEG-198AuNPs were examined in this paper. Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)-198 AuNPs can be used for treatment and diagnosis of small intestine tumors.Methods: Wireless fluorescence capsule endoscop...
متن کاملThe role of double-balloon enteroscopy following capsule endoscopy in diagnosis of obscure Small intestinal diseases
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the detection rate accuracy of Double-balloon Enteroscopy (DBE) after Capsule Endoscopy (CE) in patients with suspected small bowel diseases. METHODOLOGY From January 2009 to March 2012, sixty-two patients with obscure small bowel diseases who underwent CE followed by DBE were included in this study. Introduction of the endoscope by DBE was eith...
متن کاملTacrolimus-Induced Intestinal Angioedema: Diagnosis by Capsule Endoscopy
Small intestinal angioedema has been reported with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors therapy, but not in implanted patients treated with tacrolimus. We present a kidney transplanted patient, hospitalized with severe diarrhea, diagnosed with tacrolimus-induced intestinal angioedema with abdominal computerized tomography and capsule endoscopy. To the best of our knowledge this is the first...
متن کاملSmall intestinal model for electrically propelled capsule endoscopy
The aim of this research is to propose a small intestine model for electrically propelled capsule endoscopy. The electrical stimulus can cause contraction of the small intestine and propel the capsule along the lumen. The proposed model considered the drag and friction from the small intestine using a thin walled model and Stokes' drag equation. Further, contraction force from the small intesti...
متن کاملDiagnosis of small bowel radiation enteritis by capsule endoscopy.
We report a case of radiation-induced enteritis of the small bowel diagnosed by capsule endoscopy. A 67-year-old woman, who had received radiotherapy for a carcinoma of cervix 10 years ago, presented with passage of tarry stool and anaemia. The gastroscopy results were normal and the small bowel enema showed no abnormalities, but colonoscopy revealed altered blood clots in the right-sided colon...
