St. Louis Endoscopy Center Renovation
The Endoscopy Center at our South County St. Louis Hospital recently underwent a significant renovation and upgrade.
Advanced Endoscopy Suite
New state-of-the-art advanced endoscopy suite, which includes Omega Medical Imaging equipment that uses artificial intelligence software to reduce radiation exposure to the patient and staff by more than 60% for the safety of both our patients and our co-workers. The suite allows the technology of endoscopy, fluoroscopy and endoscopic ultrasound at the same time to perform a variety of interventional and therapeutic endoscopic procedures. These procedures allow us to take care of critically sick patients and patients for whom surgery is not a good option, allowing for greater patient comfort and shorter hospital stays.
