In vivo animal study of the magnetic navigation system for capsule endoscope manipulation within the esophagus, stomach, and colorectum.

In this paper, the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the MNCE system for a one-stop examination of the in vivo GI tract (esophagus, stomach, and colorectum) is first demonstrated. In addition, complex movement patterns of CE such as the swinging are proved to effectively improve examination efficiency and disease detection rates. This study is crucial for the clinical application of the MNCE system.
