Brief summary
This pilot, multi center study will establish the effectiveness of Given PillCam® Platform with the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule as demonstrated by the identification of subjects with polyps, compared to standard colonoscopy. This study will also use to evaluate the administrative feasibility and data management of study design.
Interventions
Each subject will be required to follow a bowel preparation regimen and will undergo Capsule Endoscopy (CE). Following capsule ingestion and depending on capsule progression through the digestive tract subjects will be required to take an additional volume of laxatives in order to enhance capsule propulsion and maintain adequate cleansing of the colon.
The colonoscopy procedure will be scheduled approximately 4-6 weeks after the CE procedure, and the colonoscopy bowel preparation will be the same as the bowel preparation for CE.

Outcome results
Accuracy of the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) for Polyps Per Subject - Sensitivity
PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) compared to standard colonoscopy in detecting subjects with polyps equal to or larger than 6 mm and 10 mm as measured by Sensitivity. A positive event was defined as per optical colonoscopy polyp size measurement. Standard colonoscopy is the gold standard.
Time frame: Up to 6 weeks
Population: The accuracy parameters were calculated per subject analysis, i.e. the accuracy events were generated by the larger polyp identified in a given subject.
