Gastroscopy
An upper endoscopy is a study that allows the inside of the esophagus, the stomach, and the first portion of the small intestine to be examined using a flexible tube with a camera at the tip.
What it is used for: It helps explore digestive discomfort such as pain in the upper abdomen, difficulty swallowing, persistent heartburn, or bleeding, and to take samples when considered necessary.
When is it considered? It is usually indicated when upper digestive symptoms are not explained by other evaluations or require direct observation.
Which specialist performs it? The gastroenterologist and the endoscopist carry out this study and explain its scope. Talking with the specialist about digestive symptoms helps determine whether this type of examination is appropriate.
