Endoscopy
Fibre Optic endoscopy has revolutionized the diagnosis of various
gastrointestinal diseases. Whereas, conventional Barium X-Ray series can miss superficial
lesions, with fibre optic endoscopy accuracy up to 96-98% can be achieved.
Now, UGI endoscopy has become the first choice in investigation for patients with
epigastric pain and discomfort, dyspepsia and upper GI bleeding. Likewise, flexible
sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy offer many advantages over Barium enema in detecting mild
colitis and small neoplastic lesions in rectosigmoid area.
National Hospital has acquired a state of art video-endoscopy system for both upper and
lower GI endoscopy. These diagnostic procedures are safe and are done on outpatient basis.
