Hive Hopes For the Future: A Tiny Camera That Solves Big Problems

Hive Hopes For The Future is a segment focused on the technologies featured at the TEDMED Hive. 

                                  

A hysterosalpingogram is a painful and expense procedure to diagnose scarring of the fallopian tubes, the leading cause of infertility. This procedure was developed in 1914 and nVision COE, Surbhi Arna, thinks it’s time for a change. For one-fourth the cost, she can diagnose fallopian tube scarring in an obstetrics office, with no pain and no radiation. CMOS is a tiny camera attached to a flexible tube that plugs into equipment already available in most obstetric offices in the country. CMOS is a diagnostic tool of the future.
