New reduced volume preparation regimen in colon capsule endoscopy

Figure 2 Example of the contribution of dimethicone to improved mucosal visualization by the colon capsule. A: A lesion (arrow) is clearly observed on the transverse colon by colon capsule endoscopy. Dimethicone worked to join numerous microbubbles to form groups of large bubbles, resulting in better mucosal visualization; B: Colonoscopy image of the lesion post-capsule procedure. The lesion was diagnosed as a laterally spreading tumor. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed, and intramucosal cancer consisting of well differentiated adenocarcinoma was identified on the resected specimen.
