El diagnóstico y tratamiento de enfermedades digestivas a menudo requiere que su médico examine su cuerpo. Esta técnica, llamada endoscopia, es un procedimiento mínimamente invasivo que utiliza una cámara de video o imágenes de ultrasonido del interior de su cuerpo para diagnosticar o tratar con precisión diversos trastornos del tracto gastrointestinal. Su gastroenterólogo general, cirujano, oncólogo o médico de cabecera podría derivarlo a nosotros. Ofrecemos consultas expertas para trastornos benignos y malignos del páncreas y las vías biliares (hígado, vejiga biliar y conductos biliares), cánceres en etapa temprana del tracto digestivo y el manejo de pacientes con alteraciones anatómicas.
Estos procedimientos avanzados son realizados por especialistas gastrointestinales capacitados de manera experta en instalaciones equipadas con algunas de las tecnologías médicas más avanzadas disponibles.
