“…When the video capsule detects intestinal villi, the DR3 buzzes, vibrates and displays instructions to alert the patient to continue the preparation protocol. A recent study that examined the reliability of automatic detection of small bowel mucosa and the subsequent alert for booster ingestion by the DR3 reported a sensitivity of 98.3% (10). After the conclusion of the examination, the recorder is downloaded into a reporting and processing of images and data computer workstation (RAPID 8) and seen as a continuous video film.…”

Diseases affecting the colon are common worldwide and can cause a major health problem. Colorectal cancer (CRC) as well as Inflammatory bowel diseases represent a major cause of morbidity and mortality in western countries. PillCam colon capsule endoscopy (PCCE) is a novel and promising technology that can be useful for the screening and monitoring of colonic diseases. In the recent years many articles examined the use of various versions of PCCE-the 1st and 2nd generation versus various other endoscopic or radiologic modalities both for detection of colonic polyps or cancer and in both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease. The aim of the current review is to provide up to date information regarding the use and usefulness of this method in these disease.

“…Unlike the first‐generation CCE (CCE‐1) that takes images at a fixed rate of 4 frames per second, the current system has an adaptive frame rate of up to 35 frames per second while the capsule is in motion. The new data recorder (DR3) is also enhanced to provide real‐time monitoring as well as bidirectional communication to activate the capsule from sleeping mode once the capsule enters into the small bowel …”

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 also be used in the monitoring of mucosal inflammation in patients with active IBD, particularly in ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Despite advantages such as its non-invasive nature, patient's comfort, safety, and access to anatomical regions not easily reached by conventional endoscopy, CE has limitations including the lack of ability to obtain biopsies or therapeutic capabilities and no control over movement. In this review, the role and diagnostic value of CCE on diagnosis and monitoring of UC and CD patients, its safety and limitations are discussed.

“…The novel capsule, PillCam Colon 2, is 31.5×11.6 mm in size and equipped with two cameras with a 172° angle of view, covering almost 360° of the colon. CCE uses a bidirectional communication system with a data recorder [ 18 ]. Acquired images are transmitted to the data recorder, which analyzes the transmitted images and determines the frame rate, which ranges from four images per second when stationary to 35 images per second while in motion, which enhances visualization of the colon and saves on battery life.…”

Colon Capsule Endoscopy: Where Are We and Where Are We Going

Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) is a noninvasive technique for diagnostic imaging of the colon. It does not require air inflation or sedation and allows minimally invasive and painless colonic evaluation. The role of CCE is rapidly evolving; for example, for colorectal screening (colorectal cancer [CRC]) in average-risk patients, in patients with an incomplete colonoscopy, in patients refusing a conventional colonoscopy, and in patients with contraindications for conventional colonoscopy. In this paper, we comprehensively review the technical characteristics and procedure of CCE and compare CCE with conventional methods such as conventional colonoscopy or computed tomographic colonography. Future expansion of CCE in the area of CRC screening for the surveillance of polyps and adenomatous lesions and for assessment of inflammatory bowel disease is also discussed.
