Interventional Endoscopy
Interventional endoscopy involves more specialised and complicated procedures that can treat or diagnose conditions in a minimally invasive manner. These procedures include
- ERCP (Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatoscopy)
- for treatment and management of bile duct and pancreatic issues such as gallstones, blockages and cancer
- EUS (Endoscopic ultrasound)
- for diagnosis of cancers of the bile ducts, pancreas and gallbladder
- Enteroscopy
- for examination of the small bowel
- Enteral stent insertion
- for treatment of narrowing or blockages of the oesophagus, stomach and bowel
- Endoscopic tissue resection – EMR and ESD
- for removal of cancerous or precancerous growths ( polyps) on the lining of the oesophagus, stomach, small bowel, large bowel, and rectum
- Per oral endoscopic myotomy (POEM)
- minimal invasive management of Achalasia and other oesophageal motility conditions
Through the use of these advanced techniques, patients can benefit through avoiding surgery or more invasive medical procedures. All our interventional endoscopy staff have extensive training with national and international experience in the procedures that they perform.
We work with skilful, experienced and caring nursing staff  and other clinical support staff to help us achieve the high level of endoscopic expertise that we offer to all patients.
