Endoscopy Services at St. Luke's Veterinary Centre

At St. Luke's Veterinary Centre, we are thrilled to announce the latest addition to our comprehensive range of services – Endoscopy using the state-of-the-art Olympus 190 Video Endoscope. This cutting-edge technology allows us to delve deeper into diagnostics and treatment, ensuring a more accurate and comfortable experience for your pets.

What is Endoscopy and How Does it Benefit Your Pet?
Endoscopy is a non-invasive medical procedure that employs a slender, flexible tube equipped with a high-definition camera – the Olympus 190 Video Endoscope, in our case. This instrument allows our veterinary experts to visually examine internal structures and organs without the need for traditional surgery.

The Olympus 190 Video Endoscope offers unparalleled clarity, enabling our team to identify and diagnose a variety of conditions such as gastrointestinal issues, respiratory problems. This minimally invasive approach reduces the stress on your pets and shortens recovery times, ensuring a more comfortable experience for both you and your beloved animals.

Key Features of the Olympus 190 Video Endoscope:
1. High-Definition Imaging: The advanced imaging capabilities of the Olympus 190 Video Endoscope provide crystal-clear visuals, allowing for precise diagnostics and targeted treatments.

2. Flexibility and Maneuverability: The flexible design of the endoscope allows our veterinarians to navigate through intricate pathways within your pet's body, reaching areas that would otherwise be challenging to access.

3. Minimally Invasive: Unlike traditional surgical procedures, endoscopy minimizes trauma to your pet's body. This results in reduced pain, faster recovery times, and less stress for your furry friend.

Endoscopic Procedure:

If an endoscopy is recommended, our team will carefully perform the procedure using the Olympus 190 Video Endoscope. This may involve the insertion of the endoscope through the mouth, nose, or other entry points, depending on the area being examined. Your pet will generally require a general anaesthesis for this procedure.
