Total Number of Patents for Capsule Endoscopy

What is Capsule Endoscopy?

Capsule endoscopy (also known as video capsule endoscopy) is the examination of the gastrointestinal part. It uses a pill camera to take images of the intestinal lumen. It is a small, ingestible medical device which is equipped with a camera and sensor to capture images through the gastrointestinal tract. The device provides information for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal diseases such as gastrointestinal bleeding, Crohn's disease, and tumor among others.

Several types of video capsules are available in the market. Some are used for diagnosis of small bowel lesions, while others are specifically used to visualize the oesophagal lumen.

The non-invasive nature of capsule endoscopy, technological advancements and filing of patents to protect IPs, market expansion, and strategic initiatives taken by market players are expected to drive the growth of the market in the forecasted period.

Capsule Endoscopy Industry Growth Drivers

Wireless Communication Capabilities and Miniaturization of Devices is Expected to Augment the Market Growth

The continuous technological innovations in capsule endoscopy such as wireless communications, miniaturization of devices, have significantly increased the accuracy of diagnosis. These technologies provide numerous advantages including safety, painless procedure, and zero risk for infection.

For instance, recent advancements in micro-e lectromechanical fabrication and computational methods led to extensive research in technology integration into commercial capsule endoscopes. This led to the development of more advanced and innovative product launches. The advent of such new tools and enhanced products in the market influences the patent landscape as researchers and companies take effective measures to secure patents and protect their innovations.

Improved and Enhanced Imaging Capabilities is Expected to Propel Global Capsule Endoscopy Patent Industry Growth

Camera with better optics and higher resolution allows capsule endoscopy devices to capture more enhanced and detailed images of the gastrointestinal part. This improves the accuracy of diagnosis by providing better visualization of ulcers, lesions, and other abnormalities. A capsule endoscope routinely generates beyond 60,000 images. By improving image quality through processing video signals or integrating depth information for 3D video reconstruction can substantially reduce scanning time for video and missed detection rates. In 2023, approximately 400 patents were granted in the field of capsule endoscopy, reflecting the development of innovations in the field. The continuous innovation of these technologies led to the development of more innovative devices and is expected to impact the patent landscape.
