Abstract :
Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) has conquered some limitations of traditional diagnosing tools, such as the comfortlessness of the cables and the inability of examining small intestine section. However, this technique is still far from mature and asks for the feasible improvements. This presented paper is to improve the current performance of wireless capsule endoscope system. Two significant limitations of WCE are discussed and possible solutions are also proposed in this paper.
