The company offers Given System, a wireless imaging system that uses disposable video capsules, PillCam capsules. The PillCam capsules when ingested by patients move through the gastrointestinal tract, and wirelessly transmit video, images, and data to a workstation. The company also offers PillCam Small Bowel capsule for detecting small bowel disorders; PillCam ESO capsule for visualizing the esophagus; and AGILE Patency Capsule and system, which is a dissolvable capsule that enables physicians to determine whether there are obstructions or strictures in the gastrointestinal tract that prevents passage of its PillCam Small Bowel capsule. In addition, Given Imaging Ltd. offers Bravo pH monitoring system, a wireless catheter-free pH test for gastro esophageal reflux disease. This system uses a disposable capsule that is temporarily placed in the esophagus to measure and transmit pH levels data to an external receiver.
