In 2001, the new endoscopic procedures for small bowel, video capsule endoscopy (VCE) and double balloon enteroscopy (DBE), were introduced in clinical routine. Those devices were the breakthrough for the imaging examination of small bowel. And each device has many different characteristics as the approach into the target organ. But the characteristic common to both is the ability having a total observation of small bowel with the high rate. The understanding of the small bowel disease is being deeper by diagnosis in collaboration with VCE and DBE recently. VCE is superior as the first examination for small bowel and DBE is useful for detailed examination and endoscopic therapy.
2001年，用于小肠的新型内镜检查程序——视频胶囊内镜检查（VCE）和双气囊小肠镜检查（DBE）被引入临床常规。这些设备是小肠成像检查的突破。并且每种设备作为进入目标器官的方法都有许多不同的特点。但两者共有的特点是能够对小肠进行全面观察且观察率高。近年来，通过VCE和DBE联合诊断，对小肠疾病的认识越来越深入。VCE作为小肠的初次检查更具优势，而DBE则有助于详细检查和内镜治疗。
