Abstract
Commentary Capsule endoscopy (CE) is an exciting new advance in GI-tract imaging. It has expanded our view to include the small bowel, which was historically inaccessible to traditional endoscopes. This unique technology has caught the interest of the public and the lay press. Although its best-defined role is in small-bowel imaging in patients with obscure GI bleeding, other indications are emerging. Dr Glenn Eisen has reviewed the current status of the small-bowel capsule and its newer relative, the esophageal capsule. Current and potential future indications for these exciting technologies are discussed. – Grace H. Elta, MD, Editor
