Endoscopy
Endoscopy is the "gold standard" for the diagnosis of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Endoscopic examinations are performed with an endoscope, a flexible thin device with an HD camera and a light source.
Modern high-precision video endoscopic systems make it possible to diagnose even the smallest changes in the mucous membrane in the early stages of the disease, which is especially important when detecting precancerous conditions or tumors in the initial stages.
During the study, inflammation, erosion, ulcers, and neoplasms of the mucous membrane may be detected. If indicated, a biopsy of pathologically altered areas is performed and removal of identified benign neoplasms (polyps) is performed. At Olympus Clinics, children and adults undergo endoscopy "in their sleep", which makes the study painless and as comfortable as possible for the patient.
