UGI Endoscopy Advanced Procedures:

Endoscopy (Diagnostic with Narrow Band Imaging – NBI)
A high-definition endoscopic procedure enhanced with NBI technology to detect early mucosal changes, inflammation, and precancerous lesions with greater accuracy.

RUT (Rapid Urease Test) for H. pylori Infection
A quick biopsy-based test performed during endoscopy to detect H. pylori, a major cause of ulcers and gastritis, enabling prompt treatment.

Duodenal Biopsy (Villi Morphology Assessment)
A small tissue sample is taken from the duodenum to evaluate villi structure, crucial for diagnosing conditions like celiac disease and malabsorption.

Ryle’s Tube Placement
Insertion of a nasogastric tube for feeding, decompression, or medication delivery in patients unable to eat orally.

PEG (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy) Tube Placement
A long-term feeding tube is inserted directly into the stomach through the abdominal wall using endoscopic guidance.

Foreign Body Removal
Safe endoscopic retrieval of accidentally swallowed objects from the esophagus or stomach without surgery.

Naso-Jejunal Tube Placement
A specialized feeding tube is placed beyond the stomach into the jejunum for patients with severe gastric issues.

CRE Balloon Dilatation
A controlled radial expansion balloon is used to gently widen narrowed areas (strictures) in the GI tract.

Savary-Gilliard Dilatation of the Esophagus
A guidewire-assisted technique using dilators to gradually stretch esophageal strictures.

Oesophageal Stricture Dilatation
Endoscopic widening of narrowed esophageal segments to relieve swallowing difficulty.

Pneumatic Rigiflex Balloon Dilatation (Achalasia Cardia)
A specialized balloon procedure to treat achalasia by relaxing the lower esophageal sphincter and improving food passage.

Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC)
A non-contact thermal technique used to control bleeding, remove abnormal tissue, and treat vascular lesions.

Pyloric Stricture Dilatation
Endoscopic widening of the pylorus (stomach outlet) to improve gastric emptying.

Hemoclipping
Placement of tiny clips to stop internal bleeding or close small perforations in the GI tract.

Post-Cricoid Web Dilatation
Treatment of thin membranes in the upper esophagus that cause swallowing difficulty, using controlled dilation.

Esophageal Metal Stenting
Placement of a self-expanding metal stent to keep the esophagus open, often used in cancers or severe strictures.

Enteral Stenting
Stenting of the intestinal tract to relieve obstruction and restore the passage of food.

Polypectomy
Removal of polyps during endoscopy to prevent progression to cancer.

Variceal Band Ligation
A life-saving procedure where rubber bands are applied to bleeding esophageal varices to stop hemorrhage.

Sclerotherapy
Injection of a solution into varices or abnormal vessels to shrink them and prevent bleeding.

Glue Injection Therapy
Use of medical glue to control bleeding from gastric varices or other vascular lesions.

Gold Probe Coagulation
A thermal coagulation technique is used to control bleeding ulcers or lesions with precision.
