Gastroenterology. Hepatology. Treatment concepts
Gastrointestinal diseases. Symptoms and their causes.
We often say "That's given me a bad stomach" - the everyday symptoms of stomach and digestive problems. They are irksome and we can well do without them. But when they keep coming back or are always there on a day to day basis, they may point to a serious illness. In our Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, we get to the bottom of stomach and digestive problems using the latest technology.
Video endoscopy. Reliable and unequivocal.
For providing a diagnosis and treatment we have the very latest video endoscopes at our disposal. Numerous diseases considered at one time to require surgery, can be treated today conservatively with minimally invasive methods. The disadvantages for the patient are minimal.
Pain-free Endoscopy.
Endoscopies are carried which are completely painless for the patient. During treatment the patient is put into a semiconscious state through medication (sedation with pain relief). ECG and oxygen saturation are monitored continuously.
The very latest ultrasound technology.
The gastroenterologists at the Schön Klinik Starnberger See have highly modern instruments to hand at all times. Determining blood flow for example is done using a colour Doppler ultrasound device. In addition to diagnostics we also use ultrasound as a control method during treatment and examinations: So for instance samples are taken from the liver and pancreas using guided ultrasound. Contrast sonography for the differentiation of round liver lesions is an established procedure.
Qualified, empathic contacts.
For many people digestive problems are a taboo subject. However ongoing symptoms should not be put on the back burner. The expert team in the Gastroenterology and Hepatology Department of the Schön Klinik Starnberger See is there to answer your questions and concerns at all times.
