About Check-Cap Ltd.

Check-Cap is a clinical-stage medical diagnostics company developing the world's first ingestible capsule system for preparation-free, less-invasive colorectal cancer screening.

The capsule utilizes innovative ultra-low dose X-ray and wireless communication technologies to scan the inside of the colon as it moves naturally, while the patient follows his or her normal daily routine.  After passage, the system generates a 3D map of the inner surface of the colon which enables detection of polyps and cancer.  Designed to increase the willingness of individuals to participate in recommended colorectal cancer screening, the Check-Cap system addresses many frequently-cited barriers, including laxative bowel preparation, invasiveness, and sedation. The Check-Cap system is currently not cleared for marketing in any jurisdiction.
