The present invention provides a capsule endoscope and a capsule endoscopy system. The capsule endoscope includes a power supply module, an image function module and a power control module. The image function module is configured to capture the image outside the capsule endoscope. The power control module is electrically connected to the power supply module and includes an electronic switch. The power control module controls the electronic switch according to a predetermined condition to control the electric power provided from the power supply module to the image function module. By this configuration, the power control module is able to suspend the power supply until the capsule endoscope reaches the specific location in the digestive tract, and then starts the power supplying to enable the successive image inspection of the capsule endoscope. Therefore, the electric power is conserved to enable the inspection of the end portion of digestive system of the capsule endoscope.
