Abstract :
As for gastrointestinal bleeding, the traditional medical methods and instruments are not very satisfying because of low accuracy and much invasion. And how to locate the hemorrhagic spot is also a trouble question. A novel medical method of miniature robot system with wireless communication is presented in this paper. The miniature robot works in human´s gastrointestinal tract, which can detect and locate hemorrhagic spot, delivery drug to hemorrhagic spot in real time as primary treatment. The outstanding advantage of this method is non-invasion
