About Given Imaging
Given Imaging produces and markets the Given Diagnostic System, which features
the M2A(R) Capsule Endoscope, a fundamentally new approach to examining the
gastrointestinal tract. The system uses a disposable miniature video camera
contained in a capsule that is ingested by a patient and delivers high quality
color images in a painless and noninvasive manner. The test can be conducted
while a patient continues normal daily activities. The system received clearance
from the FDA in August 2001 and received permission to affix the CE mark in May
2001. It is currently available in the USA, Canada, Europe, Brazil, Puerto Rico,
Venezuela, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and Israel. Many thousands of
patients suffering from diseases in the small intestine such as Crohn's, celiac
disease, unexplained abdominal pain with diarrhea, polyposis, intestinal tumors,
iron deficiency anemia and obscure bleeding have already benefited from this
innovative technology. For more information, visit www.givenimaging.com.
