Gastrointestinal System Disorders

Overview: Colon cancer, liver condition and inflammatory bowel condition are frequent troubles in the gastrointestinal system. In this interview, youll locate out critical data about diagnosing and treating these disorders. Part One particular: Colon cancer prevention Screening recommendations Colonoscopy/Sigmoidoscopy Virtual colonoscopy Polyps Pill cam for diagnosing GI problems Inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohns and Ulcerative Colitis) Portion Two: Causes of liver illness Hepatitis Vaccines for hepatitis Fatty liver Guest: Dr. Jean-Pierre Raufman, the head of the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at the University of Maryland Medical Center and professor of medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.

3D medical animation and video clip created by Virtual Point ( www.virtual-point.co.il) ) and Michael Greenspan showing new medical system. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the amount two result in of cancer related death in most nations of the globe. The Aer-O-Scope™, is a disposable, miniaturized, self-propelling, self-navigating, endoscope incorporating a CMOS camera with unique omni-directional viewing system. Laptop or computer controlled pressure management, coupled with sensors in the workstation, adjust balloon size and form to modifying bowel anatomy, as a result allowing the pressure-propelled balloon to discover its path. The Aer-O-Scope™’s visual method gives simultaneous 360 degree viewing of the colon mucosal surface, potentially getting rid of the need for continuous tip manipulation as in colonoscopy, and potentially decreasing the opportunity of missing polyps hidden behind mucosal folds. An electro-optical capsule is embedded in the front of a lightweight balloon vehicle, whilst low pressure colon insufflation with CO2 propels the balloon, causing it to glide along the ‘slippery’ colon walls without forceful maneuvering. 3D video animation produced by Virtual Point Multimedia.
