colonoscopy may be needed to review the entire intestinal tract.
- Unnecessary weight loss or loss of appetite - These symptoms can be signs of more serious digestive problems, which often require targeted tests to diagnose.
What tests can the Specialist recommend?
During the consultation, the doctor will inform the patient about the tests needed and their safety. Diagnostic options available at Endomedix include:
-
Gastroscopy - Assessment of the condition of the stomach and oesophagus, especially in the case of ulcers and inflammation.
-
Colonoscopy - A full colonoscopy for early detection of polyps, inflammation and tumours.
-
Short colonoscopy (sigmoidoscopy) - Rapid and targeted examination of the lower intestine.
-
Capsule endoscopy - Modern technology for mapping the colon and small intestine, recommended for anaemia or bloody stools, for example.
Microbiome Analysis and Other Special Tests
The consultation may propose
microbiome analysis, which helps to identify the causes of chronic bloating, diarrhoea or irritable bowel syndrome by testing the balance of the gut flora. Microbiome analysis maps the composition of gut bacteria that directly affect digestion and the immune system.
Preparations and Aftercare
During the consultation, our specialists will give you detailed information about the preparations, including the necessary bowel cleansing diet and laxative. The Endomedix uses a modern carbon dioxide insufflation method that reduces pressure in the intestines, thus increasing the patient's comfort during the tests. After the diagnostic procedures, the specialist will discuss the results in detail with the patient and provide further lifestyle and dietary recommendations to support long-term health.
