SOLENOID SYSTEM FOR MAGNETICALLY GUIDED CAPSULE ENDOSCOPY

摘要

A solenoid system for magnetically guided capsule endoscopy, has the following components arranged under a patient table which defines a flat plane: a central coil with normal direction being perpendicular to the flat plane, and four coil pairs arranged in the form of a cross around the central coil with respect to the flat plane. Each pair includes two single coils, the normal directions of which are parallel to the flat plane and offset by 90 degrees in relation to each other.
