Abstrakt:	Video capsule endoscopy is entering its third decade. After slow acceptance, it has become the gold standard in diagnosing small intestinal disorders. This article summarizes new practical applications for capsule endoscopy outside the small intestine. From 2 randomized controlled trials, it is becoming clear that it has a role in the management of patients with hematemesis and nonhematemesis bleeding. Under active investigation are novel applications of capsule technology, including the potential ability to sample luminal contents or tissue, self-propelled capsules, incorporation of other imaging techniques beyond white light, such as ultrasound and fluorescents, and the possibility of drug delivery.
