Diagnostic Upper GI?
What is Diagnostic Upper GI?
Diagnostic Upper GI refers to a series of specialized tests used to examine the upper portion of your digestive system. These procedures help us diagnose and monitor conditions affecting the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Whether you’re experiencing symptoms like persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, or abdominal pain, our diagnostic tools can help pinpoint the cause and guide appropriate treatment.
Our Diagnostic Procedures
Upper GI Endoscopy (EGD)
- Overview: A flexible tube with a camera is gently inserted through your mouth to view the lining of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.
- Purpose: To diagnose conditions such as ulcers, inflammation, tumors, and to perform biopsies if needed.
Upper GI Series (Barium Swallow)
- Overview: You will drink a contrast liquid containing barium, which coats the upper GI tract. X-ray images are then taken to assess the shape and function of the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.
- Purpose: To detect abnormalities such as structural defects, ulcers, or tumors.
Esophageal Manometry
- Overview: This test measures the rhythmic muscle contractions of your esophagus during swallowing.
- Purpose: To diagnose motility disorders and assess how well your esophagus is functioning.
pH Monitoring
- Overview: A small device measures the amount of acid in your esophagus over 24 to 48 hours.
- Purpose: To diagnose gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and assess the severity of acid reflux.
Gastroscopy
- Overview: Similar to EGD, this procedure uses an endoscope to examine the stomach and duodenum.
- Purpose: To investigate symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting, and to take biopsies if needed
