Video capsule endoscopy has been proven to be a beneficial tool to inspect the gastrointestinal lumen but its true impact may lie in utilization outside of traditional gastroenterology settings such as in the emergency room, the intensive care unit, and outpatient settings. Some advantages of video capsule endoscopy are that its administration does not require special training, patients do not require anesthesia, and videos can be shared with off-site consultants.
视频胶囊内镜已被证明是一种有益的工具，可以检查胃肠道内腔，但它的真正影响可能在于在传统的胃肠病学环境之外的应用，如在急诊室、重症监护病房和门诊环境中。视频胶囊内镜的一些优点是，其管理不需要特殊培训，患者不需要麻醉，并且可以与现场外的顾问共享视频。
