Abstract:
Magnetic endoscopic imaging (MEI)is a non-radiographic imaging technique that has been developed in recent years. MEI is capable of displaying real-time three dimensional images of the colonoscope shaft within the abdominal cavity. MEI system has been shown to be beneficial in increasing the cecal intubation rate,helping remove colonoscope insertion tube loops,reducing the duration of looping,assisting training of colonoscopy when compared with traditional colonoscopy. This article reviewed the progress in research on MEI.
