Device, system and method of displaying in-vivo images at variable rate

摘要

Devices, systems and methods for displaying in-vivo images at variable rate. For example, a system includes a processor to gradually increase a frame display rate of an in-vivo image stream based on a similarity among two or more in-vivo frames of the in-vivo image stream.

主权项

1. A system for viewing an in-vivo image stream of a body lumen, the system comprising:
an in-vivo device comprising an imager, an illumination source and a transmitter to transmit a stream of in vivo images captured by the imager, wherein the stream of in-vivo images comprises static image stream portions in which the images of the in-vivo image stream remain substantially non-changing and dynamic image stream portions in which the images of the in-vivo image stream change, wherein each of said static and dynamic image stream portions comprises multiple in-vivo image frames; a receiver configured to receive the transmitted stream of in vivo images; and a monitor configured to display the static image stream portions and the dynamic image stream portions, and to display, prior to display of a dynamic image stream portion or a static image stream portion, an indication alerting a user that a transition between a static image stream portion and said dynamic image stream portion and/or a transition between a dynamic image stream portion and said static image stream portion is about to occur.
