For summer trips abroad, having a smartphone is essential, but using data-hungry apps while overseas can lead to expensive roaming fees. One solution is to use an international travel eSIM for your smartphone. eSIMs, or embedded SIMs, are replacing physical SIM cards and make it easier to switch carriers. They are particularly beneficial for travelers, allowing the addition of a virtual carrier with better data roaming rates. The eSIM market is competitive, with providers like Nomad, Holafly, and Airalo offering affordable options. Setting up an eSIM involves scanning a QR code or entering a code manually in the phone's settings. It's important to check your phone's compatibility and your carrier's roaming costs before opting for a travel eSIM.

Traditionally, patients undergoing gastrointestinal examinations have had to endure swallowing long flexible tubes during endoscopy, often leading to intense feelings of nausea. However, the recent introduction of capsule endoscopy has provided a new, less burdensome option, where patients can simply ingest a pill-sized device for an 8-hour intestinal imaging process. This advancement allows for easier and more comfortable testing of the digestive system, with the capsule being naturally expelled from the body within 1 to 3 days, offering a wider examination range and potentially higher lesion detection rate compared to traditional methods.
