Endoscopy and Its types | Dr. Varun Khandagale

There are many organs in our stomach. There are many reasons for stomach aches. Routine tests and sonography, CT scans, MRI investigations often fall short if the digestive tract deteriorates. At this time endoscopy (test by telescopy) diagnoses the disease by going inside the body which is not visible to the eye.

What is Endoscopy?

Endoscopy is like putting the hose inside the mouth or telescope and peeking into the digestive vessel through the telescopy, along with the camera, taking photos of the inside parts of the body because of the belescope, so it can be seen inside and diagnosed properly. Biopsy (i.e. piece) can be removed for investigation.
Along with the investigation, it has become easier to take various measures and many small-large surgeries without tearing the stomach. If a person has a stomach ache or bleeding from vomiting or toilet, then the telescope is put inside the mouth or the toilet area. There is a lamp at the end of this telescope, which makes the light go in and shines and everything looks fine. This light has no heat at all. Moreover, this telescope has a camera and nowadays, advanced techniques make the image of body organs look bigger, so diagnosis is easy. The telescope of this telescopic is flexible, so it diverts from various hollows in the digestive tract and inspects various organs and measures can be taken accordingly through this telesCopic.

By wearing this hose from the mouth, the food can be checked by the eyes by going into the small intestines. Endoscopy is used for patients who have symptoms of indigestion, acidity, gases or vomiting blood, etc.

A colonoscopy means a whole large intestine can be examined with your eyes by inserting a hose through the anus. This can diagnose the causes of gut pain, such as diarrhea or constipation disease.

Things like fork, coin, etc stuck in Annanalika can be easily removed through a telescope.

It can be stopped if there is a lot of bleeding in the body or food, sterilization, large intestines. The telescope is used to widen the narrow part of the foodway or urine route and to put the hose in it. That's why a person can eat food.

As the gallbladder is blocked, jaundice can be reduced by putting a stent.

 

The capsule has a very small video camera. These wireless capsules go to the foodway and send photos out of it every eight hours. These photos are recorded with special antenna pads on the body and can be diagnosed with the small gut disease, bleeding.

An ultrasound probe is installed at the point of an endoscopy. All the diseases of the pancreas, bile duct, gallbladder, gastric can be diagnosed.

Endoscopy Retrograde Colangio Pancreotography: (ERCP)

This inspection can diagnose the disease of the gallbladder and pancreas. Removing potholes from bile tube, removing barriers in taste, if there is an obstacle anywhere, widening the hose can also be done. Telescope from the throat is put in the food pots, in the gutter, and in the duodenum. Where the gallbladder and pancreas open, the plastic hose is put inside with a telescope. Contrast is put out of that hose. The organ is seen by X-ray test and both these tubes are checked. If there is an obstacle, it is removed.
