Abstract
A system and method may display an image stream, where an original image stream may be divided into two or more subset images streams, each subset image stream being displayed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Post processing may be used to fuse images shown simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. The images may be collected from an ingestible capsule traversing the GI tract.

34. The method according to 31 comprising:
-
defining at least one circular image as a function in Cartesian coordinates;
transforming the function to a polar coordinate function;
defining a ring with image data along an outer perimeter of the circular image; and
re-mapping image data from the ring.

50. A system for displaying an image stream, the system comprising:
-
an image storage memory capable of accepting images acquired by an image capture device, the images forming an original image stream, said original image stream including at least one circular image;
a processing means for generating an at least partially shape-distorted image from at least one circular image; and
an image display controller capable of displaying substantially simultaneously at least two subset image streams, each subset image stream including at least partially shape-distorted images from the original image stream.
