Core Tip	Colon capsule endoscopy is a promising, minimally invasive wireless technique for the visualization of the colon. With the second generation, the diagnostic accuracy of Colon capsule endoscopy has significantly improved for polyp detection. Preliminary data suggest that colon capsule endoscopy may be useful to monitor mucosal inflammation in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Limitations include the inability to take biopsies and the procedural costs. However, given the potentially higher acceptance within an average risk colorectal cancer (CRC) screening population, its usefulness as a screening tool with regard to CRC prevention should be further evaluated.
