Clinical Application of Wearable Magnet Tracking System for Capsule Endoscopes

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Capsule Endoscopes

• Registration Number: NCT05546346
• Lead Sponsor: Qilu Hospital of Shandong University

Brief Summary

The investigators developed a wearable magnet tracking system, which provided a non-invasive and high accuracy method for capsule endoscopes localization. Data fusion from multiple sensors expanded positioning range and proposed localization algorithm overcame shortcomings of existing systems. This clinical trial was conducted to verify effectiveness and stability of the tracking system.
