Endoscopy

Endoscopy

Understanding what is happening inside your body is the first and most critical step toward healing. Endoscopy is a powerful, minimally invasive tool that allows our specialists to see your internal organs with remarkable clarity, without the need for major surgery.

At Krown Hospital’s state-of-the-art Endoscopy Unit, we are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and highly precise diagnostic and therapeutic experience. Our expert team uses this advanced technology to find clear answers and, in many cases, deliver immediate treatment, helping you get back on the path to wellness faster.

Our Comprehensive Endoscopic Services

We offer a full range of procedures to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the digestive tract and other internal systems.

Diagnostic Procedures

• Upper GI Endoscopy (Gastroscopy): A procedure to examine the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). It is used to diagnose conditions like ulcers, acid reflux (GERD), and celiac disease.

• Colonoscopy: The gold standard for examining the large intestine (colon) to screen for polyps and colorectal cancer, and to investigate symptoms like abdominal pain or bleeding.

• Bronchoscopy: A procedure to look inside the lungs’ airways (bronchi and bronchioles), used to diagnose lung conditions and investigate persistent coughs or abnormalities seen on a chest X-ray.

• ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography): A specialized technique to diagnose and treat problems in the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas.

Therapeutic Procedures

Our specialists can often treat a problem during the same endoscopic procedure, avoiding the need for a separate surgery.

• Polypectomy (Polyp Removal): The removal of pre-cancerous polyps during a colonoscopy, one of the most effective methods for preventing colon cancer.

• Hemorrhage Control: Advanced techniques to stop internal bleeding from ulcers or other sources within the digestive tract.

• Stent Placement: Placing a small tube (stent) to open up a blocked esophagus, bile duct, or colon, restoring normal function.

• Foreign Body Removal: Safe and swift removal of objects that have been accidentally swallowed.
