Why Early Detection of GI Cancer Matters
Cancers of the digestive system can be life-threatening if not detected early. Regular screenings, such as colonoscopies, play a vital role in identifying cancer at an early stage when it’s most treatable. Our team is dedicated to providing comprehensive screenings and early intervention to give you the best possible outcome.
What You Can Expect: State-of-the-Art Diagnostics
At United Gastroenterology Associates, we use cutting-edge technology to diagnose and treat GI cancers effectively. Here’s what you can expect from our advanced diagnostic procedures:
Capsule Endoscopy: A non-invasive procedure where a tiny camera in a capsule captures images of your digestive tract, providing a detailed view of hard-to-reach areas.
Endoscopy: A minimally invasive procedure that uses a flexible tube with a camera to examine your esophagus, stomach, and upper small intestine, helping diagnose ulcers, tumors, or inflammation.
FibroScan: A non-invasive test that measures liver stiffness to help detect liver diseases like fibrosis and cirrhosis early on.
Feeding Tube Placement: For patients with difficulty eating, we offer feeding tube placement to ensure proper nutrition, using advanced methods for comfort and safety.
Flexible Sigmoidoscopy: This procedure examines the lower colon to detect early signs of cancer, polyps, or inflammation.
EGD (Esophagogastroduodenoscopy): A diagnostic tool that allows us to examine the esophagus, stomach, and upper small intestine, often used for acid reflux, ulcers, or tumors.
Colonoscopy: The most effective tool for screening colorectal cancer and removing polyps, providing a full examination of the colon and rectum.
