结肠镜检查是诊断各种疾病（例如结肠癌和直肠癌）的重要医疗程序。然而，医生需要大量时间来掌握成功进行结肠镜检查所需的灵巧技能。此外，对于许多患者来说，传统的结肠镜检查需要很长时间。因此，开展了一些关于开发自主且更方便的结肠镜的研究。在本文中，我们提出了一种功能性结肠镜机器人系统，该系统具有空心体的运动功能、转向系统以及典型传统结肠镜系统的其他基本功能。本文描述了功能性结肠镜系统的概念和每个组件。为了评估结肠镜机器人的功能性能，我们进行了体外和体内测试。
Colonoscopy is an important medical procedure for the diagnosis of various diseases, such as cancers in the colon and rectum. However, it requires a lot of time for a doctor to acquire dexterous skills necessary to perform successful colonoscopy. Moreover, for many patients, conventional colonoscopy simply takes long time. Therefore, some studies on the development of autonomous and more convenient colonoscopes are carried out. In this paper, we propose a functional colonoscope robot system that has a locomotive function with a hollow body, a steering system, and other basic functions of typical conventional colonoscope systems. The concept and each component of the functional colonoscope system are described in this paper. In order to evaluate the functional performance of the colonoscope robot, we carried out in-vitro and in-vivo tests.
