| Core Tip |
Capsule endoscopy has been demonstrated to be very accurate for small bowel lesions detection. Currently, most capsule endoscopes take 2 frames-per-second. Whether more frames-per-second could increase the diagnostic accuracy has not been previously investigated. The present study demonstrates that more frames per second is time consuming and has a very low impact in clinical and therapeutic management. |
