Obscure gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, Crohn disease, Celiac disease, small bower tumors,
and other disorders that occur in the GI tract have always been challenging to be diagnosed …

Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is a powerful tool for medical screening and diagnosis,
where a small capsule is swallowed and moved by means of natural peristalsis and gravity …

In medical diagnoses and treatments, eg, endoscopy, dosage transition monitoring, it is
often desirable to wirelessly track an object that moves through the human GI tract. In this …

This paper introduces a new 5-D localization method for an untethered meso-scale
magnetic robot, which is manipulated by a computer-controlled electromagnetic system. The …

The dipole approximation for magnetic fields has become a common simplifying assumption
in magnetic-manipulation research when dealing with permanent magnets because the …

Magnetic localization methods have been widely studied to provide accurate position and
orientation information of intra-body objects, such as wireless capsule endoscopes …

This paper proposes a method of simultaneously calibrating magnetic localization and
actuation systems for magnetically actuated robots. In this method, uncalibrated magnetic …

We have implemented a new noninvasive multiobjective tracking system, which can be used
for localization of an endoscope and monitoring of heart valve prostheses and …

This work presents an approach for the localization and control of helical robots during
removal of superficial blood clots inside in vitro and ex vivo models. The position of the …

In certain scenarios, such as detection of unexploded ordnance (UXO), submarines, and
intruders, magnetic anomaly detection (MAD) is an effective method due to the magnetic …
