Capsule endoscopy systems are ingestible, wireless camera 'pills' that capture mucosal images of the GI tract — primarily the small bowel — to investigate obscure GI bleeding, suspected Crohn's disease, iron deficiency anemia, polyposis surveillance, and celiac disease. Buyers are typically GI practices, hospital endoscopy units, ambulatory surgery centers, and pediatric GI clinics adding capsule capability either as a complement to push enteroscopy/colonoscopy or as a less invasive triage tool. The category is dominated by a small group of FDA-cleared platforms (PillCam, EndoCapsule, CapsoCam, MiroCam) with materially different workflows: workstation-based, sensor-belt-based, link-patch-based, and wire-free/cloud-based.
