(RTTNews) - Given Imaging Ltd. (GIVN: News ), a maker of diagnostic products for the detection of gastrointestinal tract disorders, Wednesday said it has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Intromedic Co. Ltd., in Seoul's Central District Court accusing infringement of two Korean patents of Given Imaging.

Given Imaging believes Intromedic's capsule endoscope, marketed under the brand name MiroCam. In parallel, Intromedic commenced proceedings before the Korean Intellectual Property Office to invalidate the two patents asserted by Given Imaging.

Given Imaging added that if the patents are found valid and infringed by the MiroCam capsule, Intromedic, based in Korea, will not be able to manufacture its capsule endoscope in Korea or sell it from Korea to customers worldwide. Rulings in these proceedings are expected during the second half of 2012.
