Core Tip Mucosal healing has been shown to reduce the need for surgery and hospitalisation in patients with Crohn’s disease. Currently, assessing small bowel and colonic mucosal healing requires separate imaging/endoscopic modalities. Recent data suggests that the PillCam Colon 2? (PCC2) is capable of assessing mucosal healing of the small intestine and colon in a single, non-invasive test. Our own prospective data corroborates these findings demonstrating good correlation between investigations. Larger studies assessing the viability of PCC2 as a pan-enteric investigation are warranted.
