MiroCam® is the new video capsule endoscope of IntroMedic®. By using a novel transmission technology it promises a longer battery life expectancy with consequential impact on the length of the video recorded for diagnostic evaluation. As the investigators know about the shortcoming of battery life expectancy from many capsule examinations that were inconclusive because the ileocaecal transit was not filmed, the investigators would appreciate to have a capsule with extended video recording to improve the diagnostic yield of capsule examinations. Therefore the investigators want to compare MiroCam® to our routinely used Olympus® Enteropro EndoCapsule® in the context of a half-year clinical trial. Focussing on the total video length as well as on the rate of video-recorded ileocaecal transitions as surrogate parameters the investigators want to find out whether one of the two products provides superior diagnostic information in order to reduce the amount of inconclusive examinations.
