INTRODUCTION The aim of technology is to make products in a large scalefor

cheaper prices and increased quality.

With Nanotechnologies we have made more things at a

lower costand greater precision than ever before .

CAPSULE CAMERA :

Imagine a vitamin pill-sized camera that could travel throughyour body taking a picture, helping diagnose a problem whichdoctor previously would have found only through surgery.

DRAWBACKS OFENDOSCOPY

Standard method of detecting abnormalities in theintestines is

done through endoscopic examination by doctors.

We cannot scan all parts of our body through endoscopethis can be overcomed by thepill camera .

WORKING

It is slightly larger than normal capsule. The patient swallows the capsule and the natural muscularwaves of

the digestive tract propel it forward

It passes through stomach, into small intestine, through thelarge

intestine, and comes out through excreta. It takes snaps as it glides through digestive tract twice asecond.

It is capable of transmitting 50,000 color images during itstraversal

through the digestive system of patient. The complete traversal takes around eight hours . The parts which cannot be reached by endoscope can bedetected

by PILL CAMERA.

APPLICATIONS

Biggest impact in the medical industry.

Nanorobots perform delicate surgeries.

Some of the diseases detected are:

1. Crohn's Disease.2. Malabsorption Disorders.3. Tumors of the small intestine & Vascular Disorders.

4. Ulcerative Colitis (diarrhea mixed with blood)5. cancer

ADVANTAGES

Painless & no side effects Miniature size (26*11) High quality images Harmless material Simple procedure High sensitivity Avoids risk in sedation and radiation Efficient than X-ray, CT-scan, normal endoscopy

DISADVANTAGES Presence of obstacle in intestine may stuck the capsule and

causeproblems.

Gastrointestinal obstructions prevent the free flow ofcapsule. Very expensive. Not reusable. These two drawbacks can be overcome using a bi-directional

telemetry Camera.

CONCLUSION

Endoscopy Capsule is the pioneering concept in themedical

technology. NANOTECHNOLOGYhas the great impact on the nearfuture . The near future will use the nanotechnologiesin all the

fields. Great help to the Physicians.

Future Improvement :Reduction in size.Cost effective.Longer Battery life.
