摘要
A system for imaging a body lumen includes a scanning capsule with a scanning device, a flexible tether coupled to the scanning capsule, a reel coupled to the flexible tether, and one or more processors. The scanning capsule is sized to be introduced into the body lumen of the patient by swallowing and advanced along the body lumen with normal peristalsis. The one or more processors are configured to scan light onto a portion of the body lumen using the scanning device, detect light from the portion of the body lumen using a light sensor, generate one or more images of the portion of the body lumen in response to the detected light, determine a rate for withdrawing the scanning capsule from the body lumen based on the one or more images, and withdraw the scanning capsule from the body lumen using the reel according to the determined rate.
