Air Filled -v- Liquid Filled
There are two main possibilities of how to fill intragastric balloon – by liquid or by air.
More often than not you will find the gold lined air filled balloon advertised many £100's more than the saline filled balloon! - WE DON'T - they are available at nearly the same cost.
