About

The COVID-19 outbreak and spread throughout the world now constitutes a global public health emergency. Direct contact between doctors and patients in daily practice bears potential risk of Covid-19 infection, and telemedicine, or non-contact medicine, in this circumstance, offers an ideal solution. Remote controlling capsule endoscopy system for gastric examination was recently developed and applicated in clinical practice.

Full description

The novel non-contact magnetically-controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE) system (Ankon Technologies, China) adds a remote control workstation and a audio-visual exchange system to the original well-establish MCE system, which consists of a robotic magnetic arm, a workstation (now bypassed) and a capsule endoscope, and boasts a 90% sensitivity and 94% specificity for diagnosing gastric focal lesions. This feasibility study aims to evaluate the technical success, clinical success and adverse events of the first clinical application of non-contact MCE system.
