Esophageal manometry analyzes the esophagus' contractile and relaxation ability. It’s used to identify irritations or to prep for surgery.
Feeding Tube Insertion (PEG)
Feeding tube insertion is placing a tube in the stomach wall to help patients get nutrition, fluids, and medication quickly when they're unable to.
FibroScan®
Fibroscan is an ultrasound technology utilized to evaluate the liver. It can measure the state of fibrosis or steatosis in the liver.
Flexible Sigmoidoscopy
A flexible sigmoidoscopy exam assesses the colon lining for GI issues. It’s completed via a scope that’s inserted into the rectum and large intestine.
