Endoscopy is a procedure where a doctor inserts a tube with a camera into the body through a small incision. This allows the doctor to take pictures of the inside of the body. These images can help the doctor find tumors, polyps, and other abnormalities.
We are excited to provide you with an alternative to endoscopy thanks to EsoCheck
Let’s see how it works:
The patient swallows a “capsule, which is attached to a thin catheter, until the capsule reaches” the stomach
The balloon is inflated to expose the ridges and then withdrawn allowing them swab the targeted area of the esophagus, collecting cells on the balloon’s surface.
Collect+Protect TM technology pulls the collected cells into the capsule where they are protected from dilution and contamination during device retrieval.
The balloon covered with sampled cells is placed in a preservation solution for transport to a diagnostic testing facility.
Appointments
The fastest way to make an appointment is by phone. You can also use the inquiry form.
