Patent Images
1. A system for identifying anatomical structure depicted in an in vivo image, comprising:
- a) an examination bundlette that includes an in vivo image;
b) a gastrointestinal atlas that includes a list of individual anatomical structures and characterization data of the individual anatomical structures; and
c) a classification engine that analyzes the examination bundlette and the gastrointestinal atlas to identify the anatomical structure depicted in the in vivo image.

Abstract
A system for identifying anatomical structure depicted in an in vivo image, that includes an examination bundlette having a captured in vivo image; and a gastrointestinal atlas that includes a list of individual anatomical structures and characterization data of the individual anatomical structures. A classification engine analyzes the examination bundlette and the gastrointestinal atlas to identify the anatomical structure depicted in the captured in vivo image.

25. A method for adjusting the capture rate of an in vivo camera system in accordance with anatomical structure, comprising the steps of:
-
a) providing a gastrointestinal atlas that includes a list of individual anatomical structures and characterization data of the individual anatomical structures;
b) constructing a selection set containing at least one anatomical structure from the gastrointestinal atlas;
c) associating with each anatomical structure in the selection set a capture rate;
d) capturing in vivo images of an anatomy at a first capture rate to generate a series of image packets;
e) generating an examination bundlette for at least one of image packets;
f) analyzing the examination bundlette and the gastrointestinal atlas to identify the anatomical structure depicted in the in vivo image; and
g) adjusting the first capture rate to an adjusted capture rate associated with identified anatomical structure upon identification of an anatomical structure belonging to the selection set. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28)
