Endoscopy

Endoscopy is available through SUNY Downstate's Transparent Access Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

Endoscopy is a medical procedure that involves the use of a thin, flexible, tube-like instrument called an endoscope to visually examine the interior of various body organs, such as the gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system, and urinary tract. The endoscope is equipped with a light source and a camera, which allows healthcare providers to view real-time images of the internal structures on a monitor. Endoscopy serves both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes and is often used to detect abnormalities, take tissue samples (biopsies), remove polyps or foreign objects, and perform minimally invasive surgical procedures. The specific type of endoscopy is named according to the area of the body it examines, such as gastroscopy for the stomach or colonoscopy for the colon.| Explore Comprehensive Gastroenterology Services with Mishe's Expert Providers.
