LOINC description : Capsule endoscopy is a non-invasive procedure used to evaluate various types of gastrointestinal
pathology. It involves the patient swallowing a capsule containing cameras that capture
images of the gastrointestinal tract. Colon capsule endoscopy is primarily used to
evaluate for colon neoplasia in different situations, such as when colonoscopy is
not feasible or was not able to be completed, or as a screening for low- or moderate-risk
populations. [PMID: 33111600];
