Interventional Gastroenterology

Interventional gastroenterology allows your team of gastroenterologists to diagnose and treat complex digestive diseases and conditions. Advances in interventional gastroenterology allow care teams to effectively manage many conditions. They also work together to reduce health risks and improve outcomes for complex digestive diseases such as:

• Barrett’s esophagus

• Bowel obstruction

• Cancer, including gastrointestinal, pancreatic, bile duct and esophageal cancers

• Gallstones

• Hemorrhoids and fistulas

Interventional treatments often include using endoscopic surgical procedures. Typically, endoscopy is used only to identify and diagnose digestive diseases and conditions. In comparison, interventional gastroenterology can effectively treat conditions using minimally invasive procedures.
