Wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE) is a recently established methodology that offers to medical doctors (gastroenterologists) the capability to examine the interior of the small intestine with a noninvasive procedure. Before the introduction of WCE, it was impossible for a physician to examine tissues of the small intestine without performing a surgical operation. Although WCE has the advantage of investigating the whole digestive system, the viewing and evaluation of each WCE video is a time-consuming process (2-3 h) for MD gastroenterologists. This makes the WCE methodology not widely efficient and acceptable by MDs.
无线胶囊内镜检查（WCE）是一种最近确立的方法，它为医生（胃肠病学家）提供了通过非侵入性程序检查小肠内部的能力。在WCE引入之前，医生不可能在不进行外科手术的情况下检查小肠组织。尽管WCE具有检查整个消化系统的优势，但对于胃肠病学医学博士而言，查看和评估每个WCE视频都是一个耗时的过程（2-3小时）。这使得WCE方法的效率不高，未被医学博士广泛接受。
