Abstract
Computed virtual chromoendoscopy with the Fujinon intelligent color-enhancement (FICE) system was reported to improve visualization of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions at gastroscopy and colonoscopy. The technique is based on narrowing the bandwidth of the conventional endoscopic image arithmetically by a spectral estimation technology. Implementation of the FICE software in the video capsule workstation might also allow for contrast-enhanced assessment of nature and extent of small-bowel mucosal lesions. Here we propose this novel technique and report on 10 consecutive patients who underwent small-bowel video capsule endoscopy that was evaluated with FICE-enhanced imaging.
