Amazing Pill

A new experiment!!!
A new experiment can be the solution for persons with gastrointestinal diseases. Yes, you heard right. New intelligent pills that will permit identify the exact location of the problem in order to cure it. This pill is called “iPill” from the Netherlands’ company Phillips. This experiment is a very small pill with a very small camera that is swallowed to get into the digestive system. This pill can be programmed to put in a specific place the “medicine” where it is required. This incredible pill is also capable of measuring the level of acid in the stomach and can send reports so that the doctor can make his/her diagnostic. This pill is still in experimentation.

That is a great new. Just imagine the amount of technology this pill includes. Technology is in progress. Day after day new technology is created in many areas including medicine. Nowadays there are solution for diseases that did not have years ago. Scientists are creating new solutions or at least trying to find one to diseases that are killing many people. This pill is a great advance; hopefully in few years it would be in many hospitals but what will be the cost? And………….how will it come out?
