Introducing Cellvizio
Cellvizio advanced technology generates optical biopsies using the world’s smallest flexible microscope, providing clinicians with microscopic images of tissue instantaneously and in a minimally-invasive manner.
Today Cellvizio is used in over 40 countries and 550 clinics worldwide.
This allows us to identify and treat cells changed due to acid reflux before they turn to cancer cells.

Cellvizio Device Explained:
The Cellvizio is a device that is used for microscopy at a cellular level during standard endoscopy. Cellular morphology and tissue microarchitecture can be resolved in real time, in addition to dynamic imaging of the normal and pathological vasculature.
How Is Cellvizio performed?
An area of interest is identified during an endoscopic procedure. A Cellvizio miniprobe is then introduced in the working channel of an endoscope.
Next the miniprobe appears on an endoscopic image and it is positioned in contact with you cells.. Finally, a Cellvizio video is displayed in real-time.
