LASER SCANNER

In a severe case of hemorrhoid, surgery is usually recommended by the medical specialist. However, more people are turning towards Hemorrhoids laser surgery as a perfect solution for their woes. Laser treatment is usually used in acute cases of hemorrhoids or on patients who have had several recurrences of hemorrhoids. It is far more precise and accurate than most other techniques used to treat hemorrhoids.

D.G.U.H.A.L

Modern American technique Non invasive and very effective for internal harmorrhoids. Substitutes all other modalities. Replaces haemorrhoidectomy. The principle in the treatment of D.G.U.H.A.L is the detection of the pulsation of the branches of haemorrhoidal arteries by Doppler guided ultra sound and ligation of the vessels.

H.F.L.T

A modified form of laser with less penetrating power with different probes or electrodes to suit different situations like high fistula, low fistula, fissure,& also using for piles.

C.T. LASER

Laser-light amplification of stimulated emission of radiations. It is a flame cutting technique like are welding. No contact no touch technique Cutting is by melting by the heat of the flame. No bleeding ,haemostatic and most modern successful method. 100% result with instant and immediate effect. 100% safe no recurrennce.

ULTRASOUND SCAN

An ultrasound scan is a painless procedure that uses sound waves to create images of organs and structures inside your body. It is a quicker and easier way to assess the organs, tissues and vessels when compared to other imaging methods such as CT and MRI for example, and is therefore frequently used to help monitor and diagnose conditions in many parts of the body. Ultrasound is a high frequency sound that you cannot hear, but it can be emitted and detected by special machines. The images are produced when the sound waves are directed into the body then reflected back to a scanner that measures them..

INFRARED COAGULATION

Infrared Coagulation is a non-surgical procedure used to treat internal hemorrhoids. In this the doctor uses a device that creates an intense beam of infrared light. Heat created by the infrared light causes scar tissue, which cuts off the blood supply to the hemorrhoid. Infrared Coagulation is known as a fixative treatment, and is similar to other fixative treatments like Rubber Band Ligation and Sclerotherapy, in that its objective is to reduce Hemorrhoid symptoms by eliminating Hemorrhoids through obstruction of blood-flow to the affected region. Individuals can suffer from a variety of Hemorrhoids, each case presenting its own symptoms and necessitating different courses of treatment. Also used for stoppage of bleeding.

COLONOSCOPY

Colonoscopy is the endoscopic examination of the colon and the distal part of the small bowel with a CCD camera or a Fiber Optic Camera on a flexible tube passed through the Anus. It may provide a visual diagnosis (e.g. Ulceration, Polyps) and grants the opportunity for biopsy or removal of suspected lesions. During a colonoscopy, tissue samples can be collected and abnormal growths can be taken out. Colonoscopy can also be used as a screening test to check for cancer or pre cancerous growths in the colon or rectum

SIGMOIDOSCOPY

A minimally invasive medical examination of the large intestine from the rectum through the last part of the colon is called Sigmoidoscopy. There are two types of Sigmoidoscopy, flexible Sigmoidoscopy, which uses a flexible Endoscope, and rigid Sigmoidoscopy, which uses a rigid device. Flexible Sigmoidoscopy is generally the preferred procedure. A Sigmoidoscopy only examines up to the sigmoid, the most distal part of the colon, while Colonoscopy examines the whole large bowel. Also used to finding the abnormalities of the large intestine, leading abnormal growth, polyps etc. and used for taking biopsy.
