Who invented the PillCam?
Israeli inventor Gavriel Iddan's development of a pill-sized camera for wireless capsule endoscopy opened up a world of new possibilities in the field of gastrointestinal diagnostics. The PillCam video capsule offers an alternative to more invasive or less patient-friendly procedures for the detection of gastrointestinal diseases.

It is a minimally invasive way for a doctor to see inside of your colon. Pretty cool concept isn't it?
