Imaging the lower gut with a new capsule
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of camera capsule that takes pictures of the lower part of your digestive tract. It may be an option for people who are healthy or have Lynch Syndrome and have had a recent normal colonoscopy.

This trial uses images and videos from routine capsule endoscopy procedures to develop better ways to diagnose conditions. If you're already scheduled for a capsule endoscopy, you can help by allowing your images to be used for research.
This study is testing a capsule colonoscopy — a tiny camera in a pill you swallow — as an alternative to a traditional colonoscopy for people with Lynch syndrome, which raises your risk of colon cancer. If it works well, it could make routine screenings a lot more comfortable and easier.
This study tests whether a video capsule (a pill-sized camera you swallow) can help find polyps in people with Lynch syndrome, without needing a colonoscopy. It may be an easier way to screen for colon cancer.
This trial tests a special capsule that you swallow to check if your intestines are open enough for a larger camera capsule. It may help people with conditions like Crohn's disease or those who have had intestinal blockages.
This trial tests a new camera probe that works with a standard colonoscope to take better images of the colon. It may help doctors find polyps or other issues more clearly during a routine colonoscopy.
This trial tests a new capsule that you swallow to take pictures of your colon. It may help find polyps (growths that can turn into cancer) as well as a standard colonoscopy does.
