The colon—the latest terrain for capsule endoscopy

Digestive and Liver Disease, 2007
Colonoscopy is the gold standard for evaluating pathologies of the large bowel, including screening for colorectal cancer. The technological features of current colonoscopes have not progressed much in recent years except for improved image and video display.

Applications of Colon Capsule Endoscopy

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2018
This is a review of colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) with a focus on its recent developments, technological improvements, and current and potential future indications.Based on the current literature, CCE II demonstrates comparable polyp detection rates as optical colonoscopy and CT colonography, and improved cost-effectiveness.

Accuracy of colon capsule endoscopy for advanced neoplasia

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, 2020
Second-generation colon capsule endoscopy (CCE-2) has shown promising accuracy for the diagnosis of overall neoplasia. Advanced neoplasia (AN) represents the main target of colorectal cancer screening programs. Our aim was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of CCE-2 for the detection of AN in patients with a positive result for the fecal immunochemical ...

Colon capsule endoscopy in colorectal cancer screening: a systematic review

Endoscopy, 2021
Abstract Introduction Primary colonoscopy and fecal immunochemical test (FIT) are the most commonly used colorectal cancer (CRC) screening modalities. Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) might be an alternative. Data on the performance of CCE as a CRC screening tool in a screening population remain scarce.

Colon capsule endoscopy for inflammatory bowel disease

Journal of Digestive Diseases, 2018
Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) is designed for direct visualization of the colonic mucosa through passive propulsion. The role of CCE in the detection of colonic polyps has been extensively evaluated. As mucosal healing has emerged as a pivotal target for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), there is increasing data to suggest that CCE can ...

Colon Capsule and the Future of Capsule Endoscopy

2017
In the preceding chapters, we have reviewed the clinical applications and important impact that small bowel capsule endoscopy has had in revolutionizing visualization of the small bowel mucosa. This has allowed for refinement of treatment algorithms, earlier therapeutic interventions in the treatment of small bowel diseases, as well as reclassification

Indications for Colon Capsule Endoscopy

Colonic capsule endoscopy (CCE) is an emerging diagnostic tool for evaluating the large intestine. Initially introduced in 2006 and improved with second-generation devices in 2009, CCE provides a noninvasive, painless alternative to colonoscopy. Despite early limitations such as cost, bowel preparation, and inability to perform biopsies, the COVID-19 ...

Colon Capsule Endoscopy: Procedure and Evaluation

2014
The technical aspects of performing colon capsule endoscopy may be a dry and uninspiring topic to write about, but the topic has great importance for the execution of a successful and meaningful colon capsule study. The second-generation PillCam COLON capsule (Given Imaging Ltd., Yoqneam, Israel) (Colon Capsule 2) has been equipped with a new lens that
