Endoscopy Q&A

Endoscopy, a vital diagnostic and therapeutic medical procedure, involves the use of specialized instruments known as endoscopes to visualize and inspect the interior of various body organs and cavities. This procedure enables doctors to assess, diagnose, and sometimes treat a variety of medical conditions affecting the digestive system, respiratory tract, urinary system, and more. Endoscopes are equipped with light sources and cameras, enabling real-time visualization and the potential for minimally invasive interventions.

There are several types of endoscopy, each designed to examine specific body areas.  At Hudson Valley Endoscopy Center in Fishkill, New York we perform the following two types of endoscopies. 

  1. Upper Endoscopy (Esophagogastroduodenoscopy or EGD): This procedure involves the insertion of an endoscope through the mouth to examine the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). It is used to diagnose conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), ulcers, and tumors.
  2. Colonoscopy: This procedure entails the insertion of an endoscope through the rectum to inspect the large intestine (colon). Colonoscopies are essential for detecting colorectal cancer, Before undergoing an endoscopy at the Hudson Valley Endoscopy Center in Fishkill, New York, it's important to follow preparation guidelines to ensure a successful procedure. Typically, patients are advised to fast for a specified period before the procedure, refraining from eating or drinking to ensure clear visualization. Your healthcare provider at the center will provide specific instructions based on the type of endoscopy being performed.
