Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and system for detection of colorimetric abnormalities in vivo, and specifically within the gastrointestinal (Gl) tract.
  • Pathologies of the gastrointestinal (Gl) tract may exist for a variety of reasons. Some examples of pathologies include bleeding, lesions, angiodisplasia, Crohn's disease, polyps, celiac disorders, and others. The majority of pathologies result in changes of color and/or texture of the inner surface of the Gl tract. As one example, color changes may be due to bleeding. Blood may be present within the digestive tract for a variety of pathological reasons, including ulcers, cancer, or other disease conditions. It is often difficult to detect the presence of blood within the Gl tract, since bleeding can occur in difficult to reach locations. In addition, it is difficult to "see" inside the tract, especially in sections which are hard to reach such as the small intestines.
  • a second, more invasive technique has been the use of an endoscope or enteroscope. This approach enables direct visualization of parts of the Gl tract. However, most portions of the small intestine are inaccessible by this method.
  • pathologies which may be detected based on the red part of the spectrum include active bleeding, blood clots, polyps, lesions, ulcerations, angiodisplasia and telangectasia.
  • Pathologies which may be characterized by blue/violet color include arterio-venous malformation (AVM) and submucosal bleeding. AVM may also appear in red.
  • AVM arterio-venous malformation
  • submucosal bleeding may also appear in red.
  • some types of ulcers are characterized by white color.
  • a method for detecting colorimetric abnormalities in a body lumen includes the step of calculating a probability indication of a presence of an abnormal color within the body lumen based on comparison of spectral characteristics to at least one reference value.
  • a method for calculation of a reference value for tissue includes the steps of receiving at least a first image and a second image from within a body lumen, selecting blocks of pixels within the images based on colorimetric parameters, averaging the colorimetric parameters of the selected blocks of pixels of the first and second images, and filtering the colorimetric parameters, thereby obtaining a reference value for tissue.
  • a swallowable capsule for detecting colorimetric abnormalities in a gastrointestinal tract.
  • the capsule includes an image-receiver for receiving images from the gastrointestinal tract, and a processor for generating a probability indication for presence of colorimetric abnormalities by comparing color content of the images to at least one reference value.
  • an apparatus for determining colorimetric abnormalities within a body lumen includes an image-receiver for receiving images from a body lumen, a spectral analyzer for determining color content of the images, and a processor for generating a probability indication for presence of an abnormal condition by comparing the color content to at least one reference value.
  • a system for detection of blood within a body lumen includes a swallowable capsule having an in-vivo imager for obtaining images from within the body lumen, a transmitter for transmitting the images to a receiver, and a processor for generating a probability indication of presence of blood based on comparison of color content of the received images and at least one reference value.

  • Fig. 4 is a flow chart illustration of the method used by the system shown in
  • Fig. 5 is a schematic illustration of adaptive building of a reference tissue sample.
  • the present invention relates to a method and system of detection of pathologies by spectral analysis of images captured by a moving in-vivo video camera system. This analysis is based on detection of colorimetric abnormalities, or deviations from an expected spectrum.
  • the in-vivo video camera system may be included on an endoscope, a swallowable capsule, or any other device which is introduced into the body to view the interior.
  • US Patent No. 5,604,531 assigned to the common assignee of the present application and incorporated herein by reference, teaches an in vivo camera system, which is carried by a swallowable capsule.
  • the in vivo video camera system captures and transmits images of the Gl tract while the capsule passes through the Gl lumen.
  • the capsule contains an optical system for imaging an area of interest onto the camera system and a transmitter for transmitting the video output of the camera.
  • the capsule can pass through the entire digestive tract and operate as an autonomous video endoscope. It images even the difficult to reach areas of the small intestine.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the system, described in US Patent 5,604,531.
  • the system comprises a capsule 40 having an imager 46, an illumination source 42, and a transmitter 41.
  • an image receiver 12 usually an antenna array
  • a storage unit 19 Outside the patient's body are an image receiver 12 (usually an antenna array), a storage unit 19, a data processor 14, an image monitor 18, and a position monitor 16. While Fig.1 shows separate monitors, both an image and its position can be presented on a single monitor.
  • Imager 46 in capsule 40 is connected to transmitter 41 also located in capsule 40.
  • Transmitter 41 transmits images to image receiver 12, which sends the data to data processor 14 and to storage unit 19.
  • Data processor 14 analyzes the data and is in communication with storage unit 19, transferring frame data to and from storage unit 19.
  • Data processor 14 also provides the analyzed data to image monitor 18 and position monitor 16 where the physician views the data.
  • the image monitor presents an image of the Gl lumen and the position monitor presents the position in the Gl tract at which the image was taken.
  • Data processor 14 can be configured for real time processing or for post processing to be viewed at a later date. In addition to revealing pathological conditions of the Gl tract, the system can provide information about the location of these pathologies.
  • received images are analyzed for color content. Based on this analysis, as described hereinbelow, determination as to the presence or absence of a colorimetric abnormality may be made.
  • a colorimetric abnormality may indicate a pathological condition, such as bleeding.
  • Other examples of pathologies which may be detected based on the red part of the spectrum include active bleeding, blood clots, polyps, lesions, ulcerations, angiodisplasia and telangectasia.
  • Pathologies which may be characterized by blue/violet color include arterio-venous malformation (AVM) and submucosal bleeding.
  • AVM may also appear in red.
  • some types of ulcers are characterized by white color. It will be apparent that the method and system described hereinbelow may be useful in detecting any colorimetric deviation from the normal color content of a body lumen, whether or not a pathological condition is present.
  • Fig. 2 is a schematic illustration of the classification of samples according to their spectral components.
  • Each test sample T is located within a coordinate system represented by the following variables: hue H, saturation S and value V.
  • Hue H represents a number related to the dominant wavelength of the color stimulus, and varies from 0 to 1 as the color changes from red to yellow to green to cyan to blue to magenta and back to red again.
  • Saturation S corresponds to color purity, and in the case of a pure color is equal to 100%.
  • Value V is a measure of relative intensity of color, representing brightness of red, blue and green (RBG).
  • a distance vector r(B,T) between test sample T and an ideal pathology sample B is calculated.
  • Another distance vector r(R,T) between test sample T and a reference sample of healthy tissue R is calculated.
  • the relationship of distance vector r(B,T) and distance vector r(R,T) is calculated.
  • Each test sample T is classified based on the relationship between distance vector r(B,T) and distance vector r(R,T). Briefly, if distance vector r(B,T) is small relative to distance vector r(R,T), there is a positive indication of pathological color.
  • the analysis is set up to include a higher possibility of false positives than false negatives, so as to minimize the likelihood of missing a positive diagnosis.
  • other embodiments of analysis are possible as well. Reference is now made to Figs.
  • System 15 comprises illumination source 42', image receiver 12', data processor 14', and image monitor 18'.
  • Data processor 14' comprises a spectral analyzer 22, an adaptive reference builder 24, a distance calculator 26, and a decision calculator 28.
  • data processor 14' is a standard computer accelerator board, high performance computer, multiprocessor or any other serial or parallel high performance processing machine.
  • Image monitor 18' may be a video display, or a graph, table or any other indicator.
  • Steps of Fig. 4 may be accomplished using system 15 of Fig. 3.
  • images are captured and processed within a capsule.
  • images are captured by an in-vivo system, and are transmitted to a remote location where they are processed.
  • Image receiver 12' receives (step 101) images captured by the in-vivo camera system of Fig. 1 or any other in-vivo imager.
  • Data processor 14' divides (step 102) the color images into a grid of pixels. As in other imaging applications, the number of pixels determines the resolution of the image. For purposes of this discussion, the images are divided into blocks (i,j) of 8 x 8 pixels.
  • the original image is a 256 x 256 pixel image
  • the result of dividing into 8 pixels, and determining the color components is a 32 x 32 x 3 matrix of color component value blocks.
  • Spectral analyzer 22 calculates (step 104) the color components of each block: hue Hy; saturation Sy; and brightness value Vy for each image.
  • Spectral analyzer also calculates (steps 105 and 106-110) the color components of blocks of pathology sample B and of healthy reference tissue R.
  • Spectral analyzer 22 calculates (step 105) the color components of blocks of pathology sample B from known images containing blood.
  • Adaptive reference builder 24 calculates (steps 106-110) tissue reference color components in order to build a reference sample of healthy tissue. The adaptive approach is based on averaging healthy tissue appearing in subsequent images. Averages are used since the parameters of healthy tissue along the Gl tract may change. Adaptive reference builder 24 selects (step 107) blocks based on value V (brightness) and hue H. In one embodiment, the conditions are: 0.1 ⁇ Vi j ⁇ 0.9 and 0 ⁇ Hj ,j ⁇ 0.09. These conditions indicate that healthy tissue is present. As shown in Fig.
  • Adaptive reference builder 24 averages (step 108) color components of healthy regions Rj, RM , and R ⁇ - 2 (i.e. the selected blocks) of images Pi, PM , and P ⁇ 2 obtained along the Gl tract.
  • adaptive reference builder 24 filters (step 110) the average tissue colors of the present image Pj and the previous image PM .
  • MR Infinite Impulse Response
  • tj represents the time index of the current frame i and tn represents the time index of the previous frame i-1.
  • distance calculator 26 calculates (step 112) the Euclidian distance between each block in the matrix and blood reference value B.
  • Blood reference value B is obtained from known images containing blood, analyzed by spectral analyzer 22 as described above.
  • a different colorimetric reference value may be used for indication of other unusual colors.
  • the result of this calculation is a matrix of 32 x 32 elements ⁇ jj. This calculation is done according to the following equation:
  • H , Sb and V b are the reference values for hue, saturation and brightness, respectively of blood.
  • Ht, S t and Vt are the reference values for hue saturation and brightness, respectively, of healthy tissue.
  • the threshold can be set to any value.
  • image monitor 18' displays (step 118) the results, either as a color video showing the presence of blood, or as a graph or table indicating the levels and/or threshold values.
  • Display of results may include incorporation of a position indicator, so that the end user can determine where the presence of color change is within the Gl tract, or other body lumen. Thus, the physician will be able to deal with the problem area.
