The invention of the endoscope redefined by the word ‘Surgery’ by reducing complex operations to simple day-care procedures. For patients, this meant both diagnosis and treatment of various conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) were now less complicated, pain-free, quicker and cheaper.
Our Hospital started using the endoscope from the year 2003. Thereafter thousands of our patients have benefitted from the experience of our renowned Doctors and Nurses. We use it to perform a variety of diagnostic therapeutic procedures that reduce complications, recovery time and costs.
Gastroscopy or GED (Oesophageal Gastro-Duodenoscopy)
This procedures enables the visualisation of the upper part of the GI tract-the food pipe, stomach and duodenum. It is used to diagnose conditions such as Oesophageal growths, infection varices, stomach ulcers, duodenal ulcers, gastritis, hiatus hernia, detection of tumours and causes of bleeding.
Therapeutic Procedures
Endoscopes are frequently used as a Therapeutic tool, allowing physicians to not only look inside the GI tract but also treat various conditions.
Diagnostic Procedures
Use of Endoscope helps in taking biopsy from GI tract.
