What do Endoscopy Clinics/Centers do?
Endoscopy clinics/centers perform minimally invasive diagnostic and therapeutic procedures using an endoscope—a long, flexible tube with a light and camera—to examine and treat conditions within various parts of the body, most commonly the digestive tract.
These centers offer outpatient procedures, enabling physicians to diagnose diseases, take tissue samples (biopsies), remove abnormal growths, control bleeding, and treat conditions such as inflammation or blockages without the need for major surgery.
Diagnosis: Physicians use endoscopes to view internal organs and tissues in real-time, which helps identify the cause of symptoms such as abdominal pain, heartburn, or difficulty swallowing.
Biopsies: An endoscope can carry instruments to collect small tissue samples for lab testing, which can determine if growths are cancerous or noncancerous.
Treatment: Endoscopy centers can also provide treatments, such as removing polyps (growths) from the colon, treating bleeding ulcers or veins, or widening narrowed areas (strictures).
Screening: Procedures such as colonoscopies are used to detect diseases, including colon cancer, before symptoms appear.
Common procedures performed
Upper Endoscopy (EGD): Examines the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.
Colonoscopy: Screens for and diagnoses conditions in the colon, such as cancer and polyps.
Bile Duct Procedures: These procedures can be used to locate and remove bile duct stones.
Benefits of endoscopy clinics
Specialized Environment: These facilities are equipped with advanced technology and staffed by specialized physicians and medical professionals.
Less Invasive: They allow internal examination and treatment without major surgery.
Outpatient Care: Procedures are performed in an outpatient setting, eliminating the need for overnight hospitalization.
Cost-Effective: They are often less costly than hospital-based procedures.
