The system Plus has been designed to provide a 360º panoramic lateral image of the small bowel to detect small bowel abnormalities.

"Without the need for capital equipment, the barriers to entry are significantly reduced, and physicians can perform more capsule endoscopy procedures more flexibly."

The images are stored in a flash memory system within the capsule.

The in vivo images and other data are collected during a CapsoCam Plus examination, by placing the capsule into the CapsoAccess system and click download which is then accessed using CapsoView software, available for both Microsoft Windows and Mac OSX operating systems.

CapsoVision President Johnny Wang said: “Without the need for capital equipment, the barriers to entry are significantly reduced, and physicians can perform more capsule endoscopy procedures more flexibly while minimising expenses related to staffing and exam room time.
