Endoscopy at UPMC Salvator Mundi International Hospital

Endoscopy is a key diagnostic and therapeutic technique that allows exploration of internal organs using minimally invasive instruments.

At UPMC Salvator Mundi International Hospital, we offer a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures to ensure a precise and timely diagnosis.

Thanks to state-of-the-art equipment and our expertise, each procedure is performed with maximum precision and patient comfort, minimizing the risk of complications.

The main endoscopic tests are:

• Bleeding monitoring: Therapeutic interventions to stop gastrointestinal bleeding through endoscopy.
• Colonoscopy: A test of the colon and rectum, performed to diagnose inflammatory diseases, polyps, and tumors.
• Endoscopic ultrasound: A combination of endoscopy and ultrasound to examine organs such as the pancreas and the intestinal wall.
• Gastroscopy: A test that allows to explore the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum to diagnose conditions such as ulcers, gastritis, or tumors.
• Polypectomy: An interventional procedure that removes polyps from the esophagus, stomach, colon, or rectum, reducing the risk of cancer.
• Rectosigmoidoscopy: A diagnostic test to explore the last section of the intestine, useful for diagnosing rectal and sigmoid diseases.
