Chinese Guideline on Magnetically Controlled Capsule Gastroscopy (Condensed Edition, 2021, Shanghai) / 胃肠病学

ABSTRACT

With the development and popularization of endoscopic technology and the concept of digestive system cancer screening, the clinical application of magnetically controlled capsule gastroscopy (MCCG) is further highlighted. In recent years, various types of MCCG and optimization technology are widely used and developed rapidly. It is of great guiding significance to develop relevant guidelines. Based on clinical evidence, this guideline fully consulted experts’ opinions to make statements and recommendations on the aspects of definition, diagnostic accuracy, application population, technical optimization, inspection process and quality control of MCCG. The quality of evidence and the strength of recommendations were evaluated, and the guideline is expected to better guide the standardized application and scientific innovation of MCCG for the reference of clinical medical staff.
