About Endoscopy (Upper GI)
Upper GI endoscopy (esophagogastroduodenoscopy or EGD) examines the esophagus, stomach, and upper part of the small intestine using a flexible tube with a camera. It diagnoses ulcers, GERD, Barrett's esophagus, celiac disease, and detects early cancers.
Duration

Setting

What to expect
You fast for 6–8 hours before the procedure. Light sedation is given through an IV. A thin flexible scope is passed through the mouth into the stomach. The doctor examines the lining and may take biopsies. The procedure takes 15–30 minutes. You rest for 1–2 hours after sedation wears off.
