1. A computer-assisted 3D imaging method for a wireless, capsule-type endoscope unit equipped with a video camera, comprising: recording images of surroundings of the endoscope unit; transmitting image data of the recorded images, in a wireless fashion, from the endoscope unit to at least one of a reception device and evaluation device; executing a pattern recognition algorithm for identifying substantially corresponding features of successive individual images of a recorded image sequence; and carrying out an image processing procedure for the concatenation of individual images by superimposing the identified, substantially corresponding image features in order thereby to produce a pseudo three-dimensional representation of the surroundings of the endoscope unit.
