When we have doubts about our stomach health, a check-up is the key to judging the health of our health. As soon as it is discovered that stomach disorders are developing, we must take proactive measures to deal with them.
Only by staying healthy and free from stomach problems can we ensure that the quality of life is not compromised. So, what is the difference between a gastroscope and an ordinary gastroscope?What role do they play in the process of stomach problems?
Gastroscopy is a method of examining the stomach through gastroscopic equipment, which can detect early lesions and abnormalities in the stomach, and is a reliable means to diagnose important diseases such as gastric cancer and esophageal cancer.
Through gastroscopy, doctors can observe the shape, color, texture of the gastric mucosa, and whether there are ulcers, bleeding, inflammation, etc., and can also perform pathological biopsy on suspicious lesion tissues to further confirm the diagnosis.
Gastric cancer is one of the common malignant tumors in China, and early detection and survival are of great significance to improve the rate and survival rate.
Gastroscopy is a reliable means of early detection of diseases such as gastric cancer and esophageal cancer, which can detect small lesions and be carried out in time** to avoid deterioration of the condition. In addition, gastroscopy can also detect other gastric diseases, such as gastritis, gastric ulcers, etc., which is also of great help in the diagnosis and ** of these diseases.
1.Gastritis: Gastritis refers to the inflammation of the gastric mucosa, and gastroscopy can observe the inflammatory manifestations of the gastric mucosa such as congestion, edema, and erosion.
2.Peptic ulcer: Peptic ulcer refers to the formation of ulcers formed by gastric acid and pepsin on the gastric mucosa itself.
3.Gastric cancer: Gastric cancer refers to a malignant tumor originating from the epithelium of the gastric mucosa.
4.Esophageal cancer: Esophageal cancer refers to a malignant tumor originating from the esophageal epithelium.
5.Gastric polyps: Gastric polyps refer to benign tumors originating from the epithelium of the gastric mucosa, and the shape and size of polyps can be observed by gastroscopy and confirmed by pathological examination.
The main difference between a regular gastroscopy and a ** gastroscopy is the patient's feelings and experiences during the examination.
Ordinary gastroscopy is a traditional examination method, and patients may experience symptoms such as discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and pain during the examination. Due to this discomfort, some patients may find it difficult to tolerate the process of gastroscopy or even give up on the procedure.
In contrast, gastroscopy is a more comfortable and user-friendly way of examination. In a gastroscopy, patients are given a mild sedative to keep them awake throughout the exam, but feel more relaxed and comfortable. Due to the action of sedatives, the patient does not feel discomfort or pain, making it easier to receive and complete the gastroscopy.
In addition to the difference in comfort, ordinary gastroscopy and **gastroscope are also different in other aspects. For example, gastroscopy usually requires a professional anesthesiologist to monitor the patient's condition to ensure the patient's safety. In addition, there may be some additional risks and precautions as gastroscopy requires the use of sedatives.
General gastroscopy is a traditional gastroscopy in which the patient remains awake during the examination and the doctor observes the patient's esophagus, stomach and duodenum through the gastroscopic tube.
The advantage of a general gastroscopy is that the cost of the examination is relatively low and it is suitable for most patients. However, the process of ordinary gastroscopy will bring certain discomfort to the patient, such as nausea, vomiting, sore throat, etc.
*Gastroscopy is a type of gastroscopy performed under anesthesia, in which the patient is asleep during the examination, and the doctor also observes the patient's esophagus, stomach and duodenum through the gastroscopic tube.
*The advantage of gastroscopy is that the patient does not feel discomfort during the examination, and the examination time is short, generally only about 5 minutes. However, gastroscopy is relatively expensive and requires the involvement of an anesthesiologist, so there are certain anesthesia risks.
Therefore, when choosing between general gastroscopy and ** gastroscopy, patients should decide according to their specific situation and the doctor's advice. If you are more worried about the pain and discomfort of a general gastroscopy, or need a more detailed examination, you can consider choosing a gastroscopy.
If you have concerns about anesthesia or are concerned about the cost, you can opt for a general gastroscopy. Whichever option you choose, you should have the test done under the guidance of your doctor.
