Capsule endoscopy was conceived by inventive minds of good people. In the beginning there was a will to do something for medicine. The idea fomented after a discourse between the talented engineer with his physician friend. It took years to develop the concept. Then excellent engineers created de novo the necessary components to turn the capsule into a viable reality. The story is a tribute to human ingenuity.
胶囊内镜是由善良之人的创造性思维构想出来的。起初,人们怀着为医学做贡献的意愿。在一位才华横溢的工程师与他的医生朋友进行一番交谈后,这个想法逐渐酝酿成型。概念的发展历经数年。随后,优秀的工程师们重新创造出了将胶囊变为可行现实所需的部件。这个故事是对人类创造力的一曲赞歌。
