Upper & Lower Gi Endoscopy

At Acme Hospital, we provide Upper and Lower GI Endoscopy Surgeries for patients with various gastrointestinal (GI) conditions, such as ulcers, polyps, bleeding, inflammation, or cancer. GI endoscopy is a minimally invasive technique that uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera and a light (endoscope) to examine and treat the inside of the digestive tract. GI endoscopy can help diagnose and treat problems such as:

  • Upper GI endoscopy: This is a procedure that examines the upper part of the digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. It can help diagnose and treat conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease, gastritis, esophageal varices, Barrett’s esophagus, or stomach cancer.
  • Lower GI endoscopy: This is a procedure that examines the lower part of the digestive tract, including the colon and rectum. It can help diagnose and treat conditions such as colorectal polyps, diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or colorectal cancer.

Some of the Upper and Lower GI Endoscopy Surgeries that we offer at Acme Hospital are:

  • Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR): This is a procedure that removes abnormal or precancerous tissue from the lining of the digestive tract using an endoscope and special tools. It can help treat conditions such as Barrett’s esophagus, early gastric cancer, or large colorectal polyps.
  • Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD): This is a procedure that removes larger or deeper lesions from the lining of the digestive tract using an endoscope and special tools. It can help treat conditions such as early esophageal cancer, early gastric cancer, or large colorectal polyps.
  • Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS): This is a procedure that uses an endoscope with an ultrasound probe to obtain detailed images of the digestive tract and nearby organs. It can help diagnose and stage conditions such as pancreatic cancer, bile duct cancer, or esophageal cancer. It can also help guide fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy or therapy.
  • Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): This is a procedure that uses an endoscope and contrast dye to examine and treat the bile ducts and pancreatic ducts. It can help diagnose and treat conditions such as gallstones, bile duct obstruction, pancreatitis, or pancreatic cancer.
  • Colonoscopy: This is a procedure that uses an endoscope to examine and treat the entire colon and rectum. It can help diagnose and treat conditions such as colorectal polyps, diverticulitis, IBD, hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or colorectal cancer. It can also help screen for colorectal cancer in people at average or high risk.
