Summary

Magnetic endoscope imaging (MEI) is already used in colonoscopy in order facilitate scope navigation. In this study the use of MEI will be evaluated for small bowel enteroscopy in which scope navigation is particularly important. The MEI will be compared with x-ray which is still the current gold standard for scope navigation in small bowel enteroscopy.
