The 8,700 square-foot Endoscopy Center is used for preventative
diagnostic procedures that examine areas of the body such as the
colon, gastrointestinal system, or the bronchi (which serve as
passageways to the lungs). The Endoscopy Center includes a pre-operative
and post-operative area for patients, three procedure rooms, family
waiting rooms, and concierge service to assist patients and families.
During the one-half hour endoscopy procedure, doctors use a fiber-optic
scope to carefully examine the source of a patient's discomfort
or concern while the patient is under mild sedation. The new Center
houses state-of-the-art video equipment that helps doctors to detect
lesions or other problems like acid reflux or gastric ulcers.
