Solid State Reusable GI Manometry Transducers

GI Motility & pH Products
 

Clinical & Research Information

This product line has been in continual production since the 1970s. They are used in both medical research and in daily Clinical GI diagnosis.

As Clinical Products, they are sold worldwide through other, OEM, Medical Device manufacturers who incorporate them into their biomedical data acquisition and analysis systems. When these probes are used as a part of a complete clinical diagnostic system, Konigsberg Instruments does not sell these products directly to clinical customers. In this way, we can ensure that the clinical customers will receive appropriate training and support from the selling OEM organizations.
