Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

At Dixit Clinic and Gastro Centre, we are committed to providing state-of-the-art gastrointestinal endoscopy services to our patients. Our team of experienced gastroenterologists and advanced endoscopic equipment ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment for a wide range of digestive disorders.

What is Endoscopy?

Endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows doctors to examine the inside of your digestive tract. It involves inserting a thin, flexible tube with a light and camera into your body through a small incision. This enables us to visualize the lining of your esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and colon.

Types of Endoscopy Procedures

• Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD): This procedure examines the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.
• Colonoscopy: This procedure examines the large intestine (colon).
• Sigmoidoscopy: This procedure examines the lower part of the large intestine.
• Small bowel endoscopy: This procedure examines the small intestine.

Conditions Diagnosed and Treated

Endoscopy is used to diagnose and treat a variety of digestive disorders, including:

• Ulcers
• Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
• Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
• Colon polyps
• Colon cancer
• Diverticular disease
• Gallstones
• Pancreatitis

Benefits of Endoscopy

• Accurate diagnosis: Endoscopy provides a clear view of the digestive tract, allowing for accurate diagnosis of conditions.
• Minimally invasive: Endoscopy is a less invasive procedure compared to open surgery.
• Quick recovery: Most patients can resume their normal activities within a few days of the procedure.
• Treatment options: Endoscopy can be used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. For example, polyps can be removed during a colonoscopy.
