Magnetically propelled capsule endoscopy provides for the medical examination of the gastrointestinal tract. After the capsule is swallowed, it will be steered throughout the gastrointestinal tract by an externally generated magnetic field. This device will provide real time imagery and position along with the ability to perform tissue biopsy/excision. This device can be applied to the gastrointestinal tract, reproductive tract, trachea/lungs, vascular system or any accessible body cavity.
