Minimally Invasive Diagnostic Procedure
Diagnostic imaging is an important component of gastroenterology services. For the convenience and safety of our patients, we have invested in minimally invasive diagnostic technology that allows our team to examine the body’s internal structures without surgery.
This includes use of the PillCam™, a more recent advancement in imaging of the gastrointestinal tract. The PillCam procedure provides images of the small bowel which cannot be viewed with traditional scope techniques. The procedure is noninvasive and pain free, and amounts to fasting for a brief period before swallowing a small capsule that holds a miniature camera. This is a vast improvement over traditional barium diagnosis procedures, which can be uncomfortable or painful.
