displayed in a small window, with the time indication of that image at the top. If the video is in dual
head view (ESO/UGI, COLON), two images appear, one for each head.
• You can move the video display to a certain location by clicking that location on the color bar.
• SBI indicators (small red ticks) appear in the top part of the Time bar/Color bar (see SBI View on
page 129). The area before the landmarked first duodenal image is gray.
• GI divisions are colored in a narrow strip below the Color Bar according to defined Landmarks. The
regions have specific colors.
• Lines in region-specific colors connect the location on the time bar and the thumbnails.
• Before defining the landmarks, the narrow strip below the Color Bar is gray.
Time Indication
The time indication box displays the time of the frame in hours, minutes, and seconds
after the capsule starts acquiring images in the procedure.
Creating and Annotating Thumbnails
Thumbnails are images captured from the video. Some images are automatically created, such as those
that are marked during real-time viewing with PillCam recorder DR3. These thumbnails have the default
annotation of Thumbnail marked in recorder. When reviewing the video, the physician may capture any
image of interest for further scrutiny. The images appear at the bottom of the screen. Double-click on the
video image in the center of the screen to designate it as a thumbnail. Alternatively, click the Capture
Thumbnail button located next to the video player buttons to add an image that appears on the screen
to the thumbnails.
Each thumbnail appears in the
Thumbnail section.
