Current endoscopy technologies offer detailed views through high-resolution imaging. These innovative approaches integrate endoscopy with advanced imaging methods and surgical procedures.
Capsule Endoscopy: This technique is preferred when traditional diagnostic methods are insufficient. It is performed by swallowing a capsule containing a miniature camera. The patient does not feel the capsule's progression through the digestive system; the capsule captures detailed images during this process.
ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography): A method that combines X-ray imaging with endoscopy for the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the bile and pancreatic ducts.
Chromoendoscopy: A technique that involves applying a special dye or stain to the intestinal mucosa during an endoscopic examination. This dye helps the doctor visualize abnormalities in the mucosa more clearly by making them more prominent.
Endoscopic Ultrasonography (EUS): By combining endoscopy with ultrasonography, EUS provides the ability to examine organs and surrounding structures in detail that are typically not visible with standard endoscopy.
Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR): A technique used for the removal of cancerous or precancerous tissues in the digestive system. In EMR, a liquid is injected beneath the abnormal tissue to separate it from other layers, allowing for easier resection.
Narrow Band Imaging (NBI): A visualization method that uses a special optical filter to enhance the contrast between blood vessels and the mucosa, which is the inner lining of the digestive system. This is beneficial for detecting early lesions.
