Capsule Endoscopy
Capsule Endoscopy is a procedure that involves ingesting a small (the size of a large vitamin pill) Given® Imaging M2A® Capsule which will pass naturally through your digestive system while taking pictures of the intestine.
The images are transmitted to the SensorArray™ which is placed on your abdomen. The SensorArray is attached to a walkman-like Given® DataRecorder™ which saves all the images. It is located in the RecorderBelt™, which is worn around your waist. After eight hours, you will return to the Hospital where the RecorderBelt will be removed.
