Recent technological advances in video capsule endoscopy: a comprehensive review.

Abstract

Video capsule endoscopy (VCE) originally revolutionized gastrointestinal imaging by providing a noninvasive method for evaluating small bowel diseases. Recent technological innovations, including enhanced imaging systems, artificial intelligence (AI), and improved localization, have significantly improved VCE's diagnostic accuracy, efficiency, and clinical utility. This review aims to summarize and evaluate recent technological advances in VCE, focusing on system comparisons, image enhancement, localization technologies, and AI-assisted lesion detection.
