It is the most effective tool for directly examining the upper digestive tract, allowing timely detection of conditions such as gastritis, ulcers, or reflux with a precision that other examinations cannot achieve.
The study is performed under sedation assisted by professionals, which ensures that the patient remains asleep and calm throughout the entire process, eliminating any sensation of nausea or pain.
