Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Colon capsule endoscopy, which, until recently, was regarded as the 'neglected relative' of the wireless capsule endoscopy family, has attracted revived interest in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and the spiraling effect of artificial intelligence. This does not mean, however, that the old problems tantalizing the modality have disappeared. The search for the 'ideal' prep and patient group, appealing to clinical researchers, manufacturers, and the general public alike, is still under heated debate. Furthermore, the emergence of new double-headed capsule models and the accumulation of real-world data from the UK promises to attract additional interest in this field.
We invite you to share your work and ideas in the form of narrative or systematic reviews, interesting images, and clinical or developmental studies in this Special Issue on colon and panenteric capsule endoscopy.
