The discomfort of internal gastrointestinal examination may soon be a thing of the past. We have developed a new type of endoscopy, which for the first time allows painless endoscopic imaging of the whole of the small bowel. This procedure involves a wireless capsule endoscope and we describe here its successful testing in humans.

Video Capsule Endoscopy: Clinical Relevance of Capsule Endoscopy Findings

The American Surgeon™, 2006
Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) is a novel diagnostic tool for noninvasively visualizing the lumen of the entire small intestine. It is especially useful in identifying the source of obscure small intestinal bleeding. However, VCE is not always optimal for localizing small bowel lesions.

Performing Capsule Endoscopy

Gastroenterology Nursing, 2003
Small bowel bleeding is difficult to locate with current technology and costly to treat because of repeated diagnostic workups and hospitalizations. Some patients will eventually undergo intraoperative enteroscopy, the current gold standard. If the cause of bleeding is found, they may then have a bowel resection to treat their condition.
