Gastric diseases are very common in China, especially gastric cancer with a continuous high level of morbidity and mortality. As an important screening method of gastric diseases, magnetically-controlled-capsule-gastroscopy (MCCG) has already been widely used in medical institutions worldwide. Several clinical trials have already showed that MCCG has comparable accuracy in diagnosing gastric diseases compared with conventional gastroscopy. Furthermore, MCCG has the advantages of anesthesia free, no risks of cross infection, and excellent compliance. Thus MCCG could be a potential alternative technique of conventional gastroscopy. Based on the clinical practice of MCCG during recent years, Chinese doctors have gained a lot of experience. In order to standardize and popularize the application of MCCG, the expert consensus for the clinical application of MCCG was developed through several discussions and modifications among Chinese experts in the field of capsule endoscopy.
胃部疾病在中国非常常见，尤其是胃癌，其发病率和死亡率持续居高不下。作为胃部疾病的一种重要筛查方法，磁控胶囊胃镜（MCCG）已在全球医疗机构中广泛应用。多项临床试验已表明，与传统胃镜相比，MCCG在诊断胃部疾病方面具有相当的准确性。此外，MCCG还具有无需麻醉、无交叉感染风险以及极佳的依从性等优点。因此，MCCG可能成为传统胃镜的一种潜在替代技术。基于近年来MCCG的临床实践，中国医生积累了丰富的经验。为规范和推广MCCG的应用，通过胶囊内镜领域的中国专家多次讨论和修改，制定了MCCG临床应用的专家共识。
