Image for Flexible Endoscopy

Flexible Endoscopy

Flexible endoscopy is a medical procedure that uses a thin, bendable tube with a camera and light at its tip to examine the inside of your digestive system, such as the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. The flexible tube is gently inserted through a natural opening, like the mouth or anus, allowing doctors to diagnose and sometimes treat conditions without invasive surgery. It provides clear images, helps identify issues like inflammation, ulcers, or tumors, and can often be done with minimal discomfort, often under sedation. This minimally invasive technique improves diagnosis accuracy and patient recovery times.
