Imaging findings
A radiograph shows a small, elongated device with a distinctive shape parked within the esophagus, well seen on the lateral projection.
Key takeaways
This is a Bravo wireless pH monitoring capsule, a device clipped to the esophageal mucosa to measure ambulatory esophageal pH; its distinctive elongated shape and location should not be mistaken for an ingested foreign body such as an earring, and recognizing this device prevents unnecessary further workup.
