Understanding Endoscopy
What is Endoscopy?
A minimally invasive diagnostic procedure
Uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera (endoscope)
Helps doctors view the digestive tract clearly and accurately
Provides real-time visualization for accurate diagnosis
Why is Endoscopy Performed?
Early detection of GI problems before they become serious
Accurate diagnosis without the need for major surgery
Helps guide the right treatment decisions for your condition
Enables tissue sampling (biopsy) when needed for further testing
