Core Tip

Core Tip: Capsule endoscopy (CE) is the non-invasive diagnostic method of choice for visualizing the small bowel. Its utility is widely validated in both suspected and established Crohn’s disease (CD) due to its high sensitivity for detecting early lesions and a high negative predictive value. CE enables estimating the activity and extent of disease, establishing prognosis, and evaluating the therapeutic response in patients with CD. New technologies, such as the panenteric CE and the recent incorporation of artificial intelligence to CE image analysis, render CE an attractive, unique diagnostic tool for diseases of the digestive tract in the future.
