Diagnostic Services offered at Apollo Chennai

Upper GI Endoscopy:

This procedure uses a flexible endoscope to visualize the upper GI tract, which includes the oesophagus, stomach, and duodenum (the first part of the small intestine).

Why is it done?

  • Diagnosis: It helps determine the cause of abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, swallowing difficulties, gastric reflux, unexplained weight loss, and anaemia.
  • Detection: It's used to detect ulcers, abnormal growths, obstructions, inflammations, and hiatal hernias.
  • Treatment: The procedure isn't just diagnostic. It's also therapeutic. Doctors can treat bleeding ulcers, remove foreign bodies, and even treat bleeding varices (engorged veins in liver disease) during an endoscopy.

How is Upper GI Endoscopy performed?

During the procedure, patients lie on their back or side on an examination table. An endoscope is carefully fed down the oesophagus and into the stomach and duodenum. A small camera mounted on the endoscope transmits a video image to a monitor, allowing close examination of the intestinal lining. Air is pumped through the endoscope to inflate the stomach and duodenum, making them easier to see. Special tools that slide through the endoscope allow the doctor to perform biopsies, stop bleeding, and remove abnormal growths.

Apollo Chennai launched advanced integrated comprehensive liver care network.

Capsule Endoscopy:

Imagine swallowing a tiny camera that can take thousands of pictures of your small intestine as it travels through! That's capsule endoscopy for you. This incredible technology helps doctors diagnose and treat diseases that traditional endoscopy might miss.

Enteroscopy:

Sometimes, doctors need to examine deeper parts of the small intestine that are not easily accessible with regular endoscopy. That's where enteroscopy comes in. It's a deeper dive, ensuring that every inch of your intestine is examined for potential issues.

Colonoscopy:

The colon and rectum are crucial parts of our digestive system. A colonoscopy helps doctors examine these areas, ensuring they're healthy and free from issues like polyps or cancer.

ERCP:

The gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas are interconnected and play vital roles in digestion. ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography) is a specialized technique used to diagnose diseases in these organs.

Manometry:

Our oesophagus moves food from the mouth to the stomach using coordinated muscle contractions. Manometry helps doctors evaluate how well these muscles are working. It's all about ensuring that every bite you take reaches its destination!

Endoscopic Ultrasonography:

Endoscopic Ultrasonography combines endoscopy and ultrasonography to give doctors a detailed view of the digestive tract and nearby organs.

Apollo Chennai performed India's first liver transplantation using the OrganOx Metra device successfully.

Apollo Chennai prides of its achievement of transplanting the liver of a single donor into two adult recipients.

Apollo Hospitals Chennai excels in gastroenterology, leveraging years of expertise. They offer comprehensive gastrointestinal treatments, addressing everything from stomach to intestinal issues, ensuring patients a healthier digestive life.

অসাধারণ সার্ভিস এই ইনফরমেশন সেন্টারের,বিশেষত তাদের ব্যাবহার অনেক সুন্দর। যারা অসুস্থ থাকেন তারা সর্বদা দুশ্চিন্তায় থাকেন। সে সময় যদি কেউ হাসি মুখে পাশে থাকেন তার থেকে আনন্দের বোধকরি কিছু হয় না। apollo information centre তেমনই একটি প্রতিষ্ঠান। তাছাড়া অনলাইনে ডাক্তরদের সাথে রোগী দেখানোর সময় তারা যে ভাবে সাহায্য করেন, নিজেরা প্যানেলে থেকে ভাষাগত ভাবে হেল্প করেন, বাস্তবিক সেটা প্রশংসার দাবিদার। বিশেষত ইসরাত জাহান আপু টেলিমেডিসিন পরিসেবা গ্রহণের সময় যে ভাবে হেল্প করেন,রোগীর প্রতিটি কথা ইংরেজিতে অনুবাদ করে ডাক্তারকে বলেন,আবার ডাক্তার সাহেবের কথা বাংলায় বুঝিয়ে দেন।সেটা এক কথায় অসাধারণ।তারপর, দ্রুত রোগীদের কাছে প্রেসকিপশন পাঠানোর ব্যাবস্থা করেন।এগুলা সম্পূর্ণ আন্তরিকতার পরিচয় বহন করে। আমি এই প্রতিষ্ঠানের সমৃদ্ধি কামনা করি।
