  • Roadmap on signal processing for next generation measurement systems
  • 2022
  • In: Measurement Science and Technology. - : IOP Publishing. - 0957-0233 .- 1361-6501. ; 33:1
  • Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Signal processing is a fundamental component of almost any sensor-enabled system, with a wide range of applications across different scientific disciplines. Time series data, images, and video sequences comprise representative forms of signals that can be enhanced and analysed for information extraction and quantification. The recent advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning are shifting the research attention towards intelligent, data-driven, signal processing. This roadmap presents a critical overview of the state-of-the-art methods and applications aiming to highlight future challenges and research opportunities towards next generation measurement systems. It covers a broad spectrum of topics ranging from basic to industrial research, organized in concise thematic sections that reflect the trends and the impacts of current and future developments per research field. Furthermore, it offers guidance to researchers and funding agencies in identifying new prospects.

  • Robotic validation of visual odometry for wireless capsule endoscopy
  • 2016
  • In: IST 2016 - 2016 IEEE International Conference on Imaging Systems and Techniques, Proceedings. - 9781509018178 ; , s. 83-87
  • Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is the prime diagnostic modality for the small-bowel. It consists in a swallowable color camera that enables the visual detection and assessment of abnormalities, without patient discomfort. The localization of the capsule is currently performed in the 3D abdominal space using radiofrequency (RF) triangulation. However, this approach does not provide sufficient information for the localization of the capsule, and therefore for the localization of the detected abnormalities, within the gastrointestinal (GI) lumen. To cope with this problem, we have recently proposed a method for visual tracking of the capsule endoscope (CE). It is based solely on visual features extracted from the captured images during the journey of the CE in the GI tract, enabling therefore visual odometry. Due to lack of ex-vivo or in-vivo ground truth data, the feasibility of that method was assessed using relative measurements in an image-based simulation experiment. In this paper, we make one step forward towards the assessment of the absolute localization capabilities of visual odometry using a calibrated in-vitro experimental setup. The obtained results validate the feasibility of the proposed approach, highlight the difficulty of this complex problem, and reveal the challenges ahead.

  • KID Project : an internet-based digital video atlas of capsule endoscopy for research purposes
  • 2017
  • In: Endoscopy International Open. - : Georg Thieme Verlag KG. - 2364-3722 .- 2196-9736. ; 5:6, s. 477-483
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Capsule endoscopy (CE) has revolutionized small-bowel (SB) investigation. Computational methods can enhance diagnostic yield (DY); however, incorporating machine learning algorithms (MLAs) into CE reading is difficult as large amounts of image annotations are required for training. Current databases lack graphic annotations of pathologies and cannot be used. A novel database, KID, aims to provide a reference for research and development of medical decision support systems (MDSS) for CE.METHODS: Open-source software was used for the KID database. Clinicians contribute anonymized, annotated CE images and videos. Graphic annotations are supported by an open-access annotation tool (Ratsnake). We detail an experiment based on the KID database, examining differences in SB lesion measurement between human readers and a MLA. The Jaccard Index (JI) was used to evaluate similarity between annotations by the MLA and human readers.RESULTS: The MLA performed best in measuring lymphangiectasias with a JI of 81 ± 6 %. The other lesion types were: angioectasias (JI 64 ± 11 %), aphthae (JI 64 ± 8 %), chylous cysts (JI 70 ± 14 %), polypoid lesions (JI 75 ± 21 %), and ulcers (JI 56 ± 9 %).CONCLUSION: MLA can perform as well as human readers in the measurement of SB angioectasias in white light (WL). Automated lesion measurement is therefore feasible. KID is currently the only open-source CE database developed specifically to aid development of MDSS. Our experiment demonstrates this potential.

  • Novel experimental and software methods for image reconstruction and localization in capsule endoscopy
  • 2018
  • In: Endoscopy International Open. - : Georg Thieme Verlag KG. - 2364-3722 .- 2196-9736. ; 6:2, s. 205-210
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Background and study aims : Capsule endoscopy (CE) is invaluable for minimally invasive endoscopy of the gastrointestinal tract; however, several technological limitations remain including lack of reliable lesion localization. We present an approach to 3D reconstruction and localization using visual information from 2D CE images.Patients and methods : Colored thumbtacks were secured in rows to the internal wall of a LifeLike bowel model. A PillCam SB3 was calibrated and navigated linearly through the lumen by a high-precision robotic arm. The motion estimation algorithm used data (light falling on the object, fraction of reflected light and surface geometry) from 2D CE images in the video sequence to achieve 3D reconstruction of the bowel model at various frames. The ORB-SLAM technique was used for 3D reconstruction and CE localization within the reconstructed model. This algorithm compared pairs of points between images for reconstruction and localization.Results: As the capsule moved through the model bowel 42 to 66 video frames were obtained per pass. Mean absolute error in the estimated distance travelled by the CE was 4.1 ± 3.9 cm. Our algorithm was able to reconstruct the cylindrical shape of the model bowel with details of the attached thumbtacks. ORB-SLAM successfully reconstructed the bowel wall from simultaneous frames of the CE video. The "track" in the reconstruction corresponded well with the linear forwards-backwards movement of the capsule through the model lumen.Conclusion: The reconstruction methods, detailed above, were able to achieve good quality reconstruction of the bowel model and localization of the capsule trajectory using information from the CE video and images alone.

  • The future of capsule endoscopy in clinical practice : From diagnostic to therapeutic experimental prototype capsules
  • 2020
  • In: Przeglad Gastroenterologiczny. - : Termedia Sp. z.o.o.. - 1895-5770. ; 15:3, s. 179-193
  • Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Capsule endoscopy (CE) is indicated as a first-line clinical examination for the detection of small-bowel pathology, and there is an ever-growing drive for it to become a method for the screening of the entire gastrointestinal tract (GI). Although CE's main function is diagnosis, the research for therapeutic capabilities has intensified to make therapeutic capsule endoscopy (TCE) a target within reach. This manuscript presents the research evolution of CE and TCE through the last 5 years and describes notable problems, as well as clinical and technological challenges to overcome. This review also reports the state-of-the-art of capsule devices with a focus on CE research prototypes promising an enhanced diagnostic yield (DY) and treatment. Lastly, this article provides an overview of the research progress made in software for enhancing DY by increasing the accuracy of abnormality detection and lesion localisation.
