Diagnostics
The King Edward VII’s Hospital Endoscopy Unit is a state-of-the-art, purpose built facility allowing our specialist gastroenterologists and colorectal surgeons and urologists to diagnose health conditions affecting the upper and lower gastro-intestinal tract.
If you are suffering symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, indigestion, acid reflux, diarrhoea or change in your bowel habits, difficulty swallowing, vomiting repeatedly or vomiting blood, blood in faeces, rectal pain, cramping, constipation or weight loss, blood in your urine, or changes in your urinary pattern, you may consider an endoscopy to help provide a diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

LumenEye® X1
The LumenEye® X1 is a digital alternative to the conventional sigmoidoscope and could radically change bowel patient care pathways. The device supports with the accurate diagnosis of bowel conditions as well as detecting polyps and conducting biopsies, using a full-high-definition camera to create images and video of the lower gastrointestinal tract. It can also be offered as a less invasive alternative to bowel surveillance in patients following bowel surgery and cancer treatments, and as sedation and full bowel preparation is not needed patients can be seen in clinic rooms or at the bedside. It can be deployed in a normal clinic room and within minutes the doctor is able to see high-quality images and video capture.
