A new technique for endoscopy.

AP reports: “A funny thing happened five minutes after Dr. Amar Al-Juburi started an endoscopy procedure on Sandy Sellers. He was done. Sellers swallowed two cameras mounted in a clear pill the size of vitamin. After waiting 15 more minutes to make sure a computer captured the 2,600 images taken during the five-minute test, the woman was free to return to her job as a doctor’s office technician.”

Amazing story. The stuff of science fiction, now realized.

Three cheers for modern technology and medicine.
