Abstract
An in-vivo imaging system and method to automatically detect a pathology frame sequence in an image stream captured in vivo. An image stream comprising a plurality of image frames captured in vivo may be received, and a pathology score for at least a portion of the image frames is received. A seed frame which includes at least one pathology candidate may be selected, and the position of the pathology candidate in the seed frame may be determined. A sequence of frames adjacent to the seed frame is defined comprising frames that depict the pathology candidate, and a pathology sequence score is calculated based on the sequence, the pathology sequence score correlating to the probability that the sequence of frames adjacent to the seed frame includes a pathology. If the pathology sequence score is within a range, a display method may be adapted, or the pathology score may be changed based.
