NaviCam Capsule Endoscope System
Controller. The NaviCam Capsule Endoscope System with NaviCam Stomach Capsule (“NaviCam Stomach System” in short), is a novel endoscopic capsule imaging system intended to obtain images of the stomach. It differs from passive capsule endoscopy systems in that it uses magnetic fields to allow the position of the capsule to be controlled by an operator.
Details
Device typeVideo capsule endoscopy system capsule magnetic manipulation unit: An electrically-powered, noninvasive device designed to control/manoeuvre a video capsule endoscopy system capsule (not included) in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
