Cellvizio® vision is changing lives
Cellvizio, the world’s only real-time in vivo cellular imaging platform, is transforming gastroenterology. By enabling you to see precisely what’s occurring virtually anywhere in the GI tract, at the cellular level, in real time, Cellvizio reduces uncertainty and delay in the diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases:1
Obtain instant relevant diagnostic information2,3
Make on-the-spot treatment decisions1
Evaluate response to treatment quickly and precisely4
The Cellvizio® difference
Early, accurate diagnosis of gastrointestinal disease can be difficult with traditional endoscopic techniques, which offer limited diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities. The power of Cellvizio vision changes that.
Instead of blind biopsies, view the characteristics of cells in real time, inside the patient, with high-magnification video. Observe the mucosa for investigation of potentially cancerous tissue.
Classify high-grade dysplasia and early esophageal cancer with high accuracy.5 Characterize intestinal metaplasia and early gastric cancer.6 Differentiate responders from non-responders for ulcerative colitis patients.4
Perform better targeted biopsies,5 yielding on-the-spot characterization of abnormalities. Identify cancers,7 or rule out malignancies with more confidence,8 and avoid biopsies of insignificant lesions.9
Make earlier, more conclusive diagnoses.10 Perform fewer, less invasive interventions.11 Optimize treatment paths and patient care, for more favorable clinical12 and economic outcomes.9
The Cellvizio® platform
The Cellvizio real-time in vivo cellular imaging platform uses Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE) advanced imaging technology to deliver cellular visualization virtually anywhere in the human body.
