The object of this study is to measure the transit time and passage rate of capsule endoscopy (CE) in thegastrointestinal tract in medium sized beagle dogs (7~13 kg). Animals were divided into four groups: only capsule(group 1, n=10), capsule+water (group 2, n=10), mettoclopramide+capsule (group 3, n=10), metoclopramide+capsule+water (group 4, n=10). The capsule transit times through the stomach and small bowel were evaluatedby radiography findings. Gastric transit time (GTT), small intestinal transit time (SITT) and complete passagerate were measured in four groups. GTT’s for each group were as follows; 45±20 min (group 1), 117±35 min(group 2), 150±40 min (group 3), and 154±65 min (group 4), while SITT’s were 75±20 min (group 1), 195±55min (group 2), 70±15 min (group 3), and 76±15 min (group 4). The complete passage rates were 20% (group1), 40% (group 2), 20% (group 3), 50% (group 4). In all groups, if CE could pass through the pylorus, it passedall small intestinal tracts within 8 hours (battery life). Administration of water helped CE to pass pylori, exceptin case of metoclopramide administration. These results indicate that CE could be an useful tool for examininggastrointestinal diseases in the veterinary medicine.
