    Abstract: A position detection system includes: a cylindrical detection coil configured to detect a magnetic field generated by a magnetic field generation unit; and a calculation unit configured to calculate at least one of a position and a direction of the magnetic field generation unit based on the magnetic field detected by the detection coil. A relationship between a diameter Ds and a length Ls in a winding direction, of the detection coil, satisfies Formula (1), and each of coefficients G1, G2, and G3 in Formula (1) is respectively given by each of Formulae (2), (3) and (4).  G 1  ( L S D S ) 2 + G 2  ( L S D S ) + G 3  ≦ 0.2 ( 1 ) G 1 = - 1.73  10 - 5  D S 2 + 7.36  10 - 3  D S - 4.71  10 - 2 ( 2 ) G 2 = 3.74  10 - 5  D S 2 - 1.54  10 - 3  D S + 1.16  10 - 2 ( 3 ) G 3 = - 8.96  10 - 5  D S 2 - 1.74  10 - 3  D S + 1.30  10 - 2 ( 4 )

    Abstract: A position detection system includes: a capsule medical device configured to generate a position-detecting magnetic field; a plurality of detection coils arranged outside a subject; and a processor including hardware. The processor is configured to correct a magnetic field component caused by a first magnetic field generation material with respect to each of measurement values of detection signals output from the detection coils, the first magnetic field generation material being arranged inside a space that the position-detecting magnetic field generated by the capsule medical device present inside a detection target region is reachable, the detection target region being a region in which a position of the capsule medical device is detectable, the first magnetic field generation material being configured to generate a magnetic field due to action of the position-detecting magnetic field.
