From Basic to Cutting Edge
Endoscopy
Many digestive care services at
Lankenau Medical Center are
performed with the use of an
endoscope—a thin, flexible tube
with a tiny light and camera at
the end. Endoscopes allow
examination of the inside of the
digestive tract and, in some
cases, treatment of identified
problems.
We offer a fully equipped,
state-of-the-art Endoscopy
Center and expertise ranging
from basic diagnostic procedures
to cutting-edge interventional
(therapeutic) techniques. At
Lankenau Medical Center,
endoscopic procedures are being
used to detect and treat a
growing number of digestive
disorders, including GERD,
precancerous conditions such as
Barrett’s esophagus, early
cancers, blockages due to stones
or scarring, inflammation, and
intestinal bleeding. Learn
