Colonoscopy is the most effective method of cancer prevention, as precancerous polyps can be removed immediately during the scan. We offer the procedure under general anaesthesia so that you can have your beauty treatment without pain and unpleasant memories, in maximum safety.
for the over 45-50 age group: Even in the absence of complaints, it is a key screening test for the timely prevention of tumours.
In case of family involvement: If there is a history of intestinal polyps or tumours in the family, regular check-ups are highly recommended.
When rectal bleeding is detected: In the case of fresh blood or a positive faecal blood test, accurate identification of the source is essential.
When stool habits change: Persistent constipation, diarrhoea or sudden changes in habitus require a thorough investigation.
For iron deficiency of unknown origin: This is the surest way to detect hidden intestinal bleeding underlying anaemia.
For chronic abdominal pain: The procedure is recommended to identify the cause of recurrent cramping, bloating or tightness.
Known to control inflammation of the gut: In the case of Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, the aim is to monitor the status of the inflammation.
In case of unjustified weight loss: It is crucial to rule out malabsorption or pathological processes behind sudden weight loss.
Anaesthesia
Total painlessness: You will sleep throughout the test, so you will not experience any discomfort.
A stress-free experience: The absence of anxiety and unpleasant reflexes guarantees a relaxed test environment.
Maximum relaxation: The relaxed muscles help the doctor to control the instrument more easily and precisely.
Missed memories: Thanks to modern anaesthetics, you will not have any negative memories of the procedure.
Without anaesthesia
Constant vigilance: You remain conscious throughout the examination so you can respond immediately to the doctor's questions during the examination.
Active participation: You can monitor the condition of your intestinal tract with your own eyes throughout the procedure.
Faster departure: There is no wake-up time after the test, so you can leave the clinic immediately without an escort.
A cost-effective solution: This procedure is more affordable as it does not require anaesthetic supervision.
The success of the test depends on a clean bowel. A fibre-free diet and the accurate administration of laxative fluids give the specialist a perfect field of vision.
Our specialists use a fast-acting agent so you can drift off to a restful sleep. Our anaesthesia team will monitor your vital signs throughout the procedure.
Our doctor uses a modern video endoscope to examine the intestinal wall centimetre by centimetre. Any polyps found are removed immediately and painlessly during the process.
After a few minutes, you will wake up fresh and your doctor will give you a detailed explanation of what you have seen. You will receive your findings and the results of any histopathological sampling immediately.
I.
The biggest advantage of the anaesthetic procedure is that it completely eliminates the fear of being scanned and the physical pain. During deep anaesthesia with propofol, you will sleep undisturbed, freeing you from cramps and uncomfortable bloating caused by tension in the intestinal wall. This method not only relaxes the body, but also eliminates mental stress, making screening a safe, unobtrusive routine procedure instead of a traumatic experience.
II.
When the patient is under anaesthesia, the muscles are completely relaxed and there are no involuntary reflexes that can make it difficult to move the endoscope. This relaxed state allows the gastroenterologist to focus all his attention on the smallest details of the intestinal mucosa. This immobility helps to detect millimetre-sized polyps and precancerous conditions, so the efficiency of the examination and the accuracy of the diagnosis are greatly increased.
III.
During a colonoscopy under anaesthesia, the specialist not only examines the colon, but also acts immediately if necessary. If a polyp or other lesion is found, a biopsy or polyp removal can be performed immediately and painlessly while you are fast asleep. This avoids a more complicated surgical procedure later on, as diagnosis and preventive treatment are done in one step, without any discomfort.
