Technologies Used

Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) Technology with High Definition Endoscopes

Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) is an advanced imaging technology used in conjunction with high-definition endoscopes to enhance visualization of the gastrointestinal tract. By emitting specific narrow bands of light, NBI highlights the superficial blood vessels and mucosal patterns, allowing for improved detection and characterization of abnormalities such as polyps, tumors, and inflammation. The benefits of NBI include increased diagnostic accuracy, better delineation of lesion borders, and potentially reducing the need for unnecessary biopsies during endoscopic procedures

Therapeutic Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) - EUS ME3

Therapeutic Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) is an advanced procedure that combines endoscopy and ultrasound to visualize and treat conditions affecting the digestive tract and adjacent organs. EUS ME3 represents the latest generation of EUS technology, offering superior image resolution and depth penetration for precise diagnosis and intervention. With EUS ME3, physicians can accurately assess lesions, perform fine-needle aspirations for tissue sampling, and deliver targeted therapies such as tumor ablation or drainage of fluid collections. The benefits of EUS ME3 include improved diagnostic yield, minimally invasive treatment options, and enhanced patient outcomes.

FibroScan

FibroScan is a non-invasive diagnostic tool used to assess liver fibrosis and steatosis (fat accumulation) without the need for liver biopsy. It utilizes transient elastography to measure liver stiffness and ultrasound technology to quantify liver fat content. FibroScan provides valuable information about liver health, aiding in the early detection and monitoring of liver diseases such as fatty liver disease, viral hepatitis, and cirrhosis. The benefits of FibroScan include quick and painless assessment, reduced risk compared to liver biopsy, and the ability to track disease progression over time.
