In medicine and surgery, the branch that deals with the digestive system and its disorders is called gastroenterology. Gastroenterology focuses on the diseases affecting the gastrointestinal system, which includes all organs between the mouth and the anus along the alimentary canal. Gastroenterology does study on normal functions and diseases of the gastrointestinal system: esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon and rectum, pancreas, gallbladder, bile ducts and liver. Gastroenterology also includes other organs that participate in digestion such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas as well as the vermiform appendix.
Reliable first class gastroenterology instruments helps gastroenterologists to diagnose properly diseases of these organs. Given the complex anatomy of the gastrointestinal system, specialized equipment and trainning are needed for assessment, diagnosis and treatment of gastrointestinal diseases.
We can offer a variety of devices and tools that are used in gastroenterology such as gastroscopes, duodenoscopes, proctoscopes, capsule endoscopes, insufflation needles, bite blocks, gastric bands, hernia prostheses, ileostomy bags, ozone therapy units, etc.
Gastroenterology involves the overall understanding of the normal gastrointestinal organs action. Gastroenterologists have to understand motility - the movement of material through the stomach and intestine, the digestion and absorption of nutrients and the function of the liver.
