What is Gastroenterology?
Gastroenterology
is the branch of medicine focused on the digestive system and its disorders. It
deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of conditions affecting the
gastrointestinal (GI) tract and associated organs such as the liver, pancreas,
and biliary system.
Gastroenterologists use advanced diagnostic tools including endoscopy, colonoscopy, imaging, and laboratory tests to identify and manage digestive disorders effectively.
