Abstract

Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) enables a comprehensive, non-invasive, and painless evaluation of the colon, although it still has limited indications. The lengthy reading times hinder its wider implementation, a drawback that could potentially be overcome through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) models. Studies employing AI, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), demonstrate great promise in using CCE as a viable option for detecting certain diseases and alterations in the colon, compared to other methods like colonoscopy. Additionally, employing AI models in CCE could pave the way for a minimally invasive panenteric or even panendoscopic solution. This review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the current state-of-the-art of AI in CCE while also addressing the challenges, both technical and ethical, associated with broadening indications for AI-powered CCE. Additionally, it also gives a brief reflection of the potential environmental advantages of using this method compared to alternative ones.
