A retrospective analysis involving 2,163 asymptomatic individuals revealed that small-sized magnetically controlled capsule gastroscopy (mccg) successfully detected gastrointestinal issues such as submucosal tumors (1.57%), polyps (15.16%), and ulcers (1.25%). Detection rates for polyps were notably higher in females and increased with age. The procedure was well-tolerated, with no significant discomfort or adverse events reported, demonstrating that mccg is a safe and effective method for routine gastrointestinal disease screenings.
