Endoscopy Services in Indore by Dr. Sarang Mahanaik

Endoscopy is a vital diagnostic and therapeutic procedure used to examine the inside of the digestive tract, helping detect and treat various gastrointestinal conditions. Dr. Sarang Mahanaik, a leading gastroenterologist in Indore, offers expert endoscopy services using advanced technology to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.

Overview of Endoscopy

Endoscopy involves the use of a flexible tube with a camera and light, called an endoscope, which is inserted through the mouth or rectum to visualize the esophagus, stomach, and intestines. This minimally invasive procedure allows for direct inspection, biopsy, and intervention without the need for major surgery.

Endoscopy is essential for diagnosing conditions like ulcers, gastritis, polyps, cancers, bleeding, and strictures, as well as for therapeutic procedures such as removal of growths and controlling bleeding.

Indications and Types of Endoscopy

Common reasons for endoscopy include:

• Persistent abdominal pain or discomfort

• Unexplained vomiting or difficulty swallowing

• Gastrointestinal bleeding or blood in stools

• Chronic acid reflux or suspected ulcers

• Screening for GI cancers or Barrett’s esophagus

Types of endoscopy offered:

• Upper GI Endoscopy (Esophagogastroduodenoscopy): Examines the esophagus, stomach, and upper part of the small intestine.

• Colonoscopy: Visualizes the colon and rectum for screening and diagnosis of lower GI issues.

• Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS): Combines endoscopy with ultrasound to assess deeper tissues and nearby organs.
