Utility
Imaging capsule location detection
25 May 21
An imaging capsule configured to be swallowed to scan the gastrointestinal tract of a person from the inside, including a radiation source providing X-Ray and gamma radiation for scanning the gastrointestinal tract, a pressure sensor for measuring the internal pressure in the imaging capsule; and wherein the imaging capsule is configured to control the emission of radiation from within the imaging capsule responsive to the measurements of the pressure sensor.

Utility
Drug delivery capsule
14 Sep 20
A delivery capsule configured to be swallowed to deliver medication inside the gastrointestinal tract, including a pressure sensor for measuring the internal pressure in the delivery capsule; one or more compartments for storing medication; and a controller configured to control the release a dose of medication from a compartment responsive to the measurements of the pressure sensor.

Utility
Radiation source for intra-lumen imaging capsule
10 Aug 20
A method of separating Osmium from Iridium, including receiving a powdered mixture of Osmium and Iridium, oxidizing the Osmium of the powdered mixture, capturing the oxidized Osmium in a trapping solution, reducing the oxidized Osmium from the solution to release the Osmium.

Utility
Image reconstruction with radioactive imaging capsule
3 Aug 20
A method of reconstructing an image of a colon, including receiving scan data of a colon taken by an imaging capsule that traverses the colon; wherein the imaging capsule emits X-ray radiation inside the colon and includes detectors that detect photons that are returned toward the imaging capsule from X-ray fluorescence and Compton back scattering interactions responsive to the radiation; and wherein the scan data includes counts of photons detected by each detector from X-ray fluorescence and Compton back scattering interactions; defining an initial guess of a geometry of a contour of a slice of the colon; calculating count values for each detector responsive to the geometry using a forward model; comparing the calculated count values of each detector with the values from the scan data; if the results of the comparison do not indicate reaching an optimal match then adjust the defined geometry and repeat the calculating and comparing.
