UPPER GASTROINTESTINAL ENDOSCOPY

An upper endoscopy, also called an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, is a procedure used to visually examine your upper digestive system.
This is done with the help of a tiny camera on the end of a long, flexible tube.

WHY ITS DONE

TO INVESTIGATE SYMPTOMS LIKE HEARTBURN, NAUSEA, VOMITING, ABDOMINAL PAIN, DIFFICULTY SWALLOWING AND GASTROINTESTINAL BLEEDING
TO DIAGNOSE – AN ENDOSCOPY OFFERS AN OPPORTUNITY TO COLLECT TISSUE SAMPLES (BIOPSY) TO TEST FOR DISEASES AND CONDITIONS THAT MAY BE CAUSING ANEMIA, BLEEDING, INFLAMMATION OR DIARRHEA. IT CAN ALSO DETECT SOME CANCERS OF THE UPPER DIGESTIVE SYSTEM.
TREAT – PECIAL TOOLS CAN BE PASSED THROUGH THE ENDOSCOPE TO TREAT PROBLEMS IN YOUR DIGESTIVE SYSTEM. FOR EXAMPLE, AN ENDOSCOPY CAN BE USED TO BURN A BLEEDING VESSEL TO STOP BLEEDING, WIDEN A NARROW ESOPHAGUS, CLIP OFF A POLYP OR REMOVE A FOREIGN OBJECT.
