On approach into ROA; we were at 4;000 feet. and cleared for the visual approach just south of PROSE but before HIBAN; minimum altitude was 3;700 feet. The FO (First Officer) was PF (Pilot Flying) and began a turn towards the runway but due to the radar altimeter registering rising terrain during the bank; we got a momentary EGPWS caution. We knew our position on approach was above the minimum altitude for that sector and could verify visually we were not in conflict with any of the terrain so we continued with the approach while paying attention to our position; FPA (Flight Path Angle); and the PAPIs. Conditions during event were day VFR.[The] bank over terrain triggered EGPWS. Continued visually. We had discussed the terrain as a threat numerous times before attempting the approach.
Air carrier Captain reported a momentary EGPWS warning on visual approach to ROA airport over terrain.
