A Gastroscopy is an examination of the lining of the esophagus, stomach and upper intestine. This is procedure is performed by a small flexible tube with a camera on the end (an endoscope) that is passed through the mouth down to the stomach -this tube does not interfere with breathing.
The endoscope sends images to a screen where the specialist can identify any abnormalities and even take small painless biopsies for further testing.
Before your Gastroscopy your specialist will consult with you on your level of sedation to suit your specific needs.
