It utilizes a soft, flexible endoscope to evaluate lesions and diseases in the upper gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum, such as abnormal cells, inflammation, ulcers, or polyps. If you experience symptoms or diseases related to indigestion, acid reflux, difficulty swallowing, or esophageal and stomach cancer, you should follow a doctor's advice to undergo a gastroscopy. This procedure includes rapid urea testing for Helicobacter pylori, tissue\/polyp removal, and gastric tissue sampling to evaluate whether a growth is benign or malignant, allowing for the immediate removal of polyps if issues are identified.<\/p><p>Gastroscopy can be more accurate than X-ray in identifying the cause of the disease, allowing the doctor to observe the condition of the upper gastrointestinal tract on the screen instantly and to use different instruments to stop bleeding,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/\u5927\u8178\u761c\u8089\u6703\u8b8a\u8178\u764c\u55ce\uff1f\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">&nbsp;remove polyps<\/a>\u00a0as well as extract suspicious tissue for further laboratory testing.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/hongkongmed.com\/en\/gastroscopy\/#form_anchor\" data-wplink-url-error=\"true\">Contact Us<\/a>&nbsp;for detained pricing and information of cystoscopy at HKMED.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1ac3ef4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1ac3ef4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c5865ba\" data-id=\"c5865ba\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-ab85bae elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ab85bae\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-62087e1\" data-id=\"62087e1\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-338fadf elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"338fadf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Enquiry for appointment<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-afb3a3f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"afb3a3f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you have any enquiries or wish to schedule an examination, please feel free to contact us through the following channels.

about 2 hours at day medical centre. Prior to gastroscopy, an anaesthetic procedure will be performed to minimise discomfort during the examination. Gastroscopy using a flexible tube of approximately 0.9 cm diameter is passed through the mouth into the body and the lining of the oesophagus, stomach and part of the duodenum will be examined. The entire gastroscopy generally takes about 15 to 20 minutes and the patient will be then taken to the recovery room where he\/she will be checked with the vital-index device for further monitoring by a team of healthcare professionals.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column
