Digestive diseases, which can include issues like bloating, constipation, diarrhea, and gastroesophageal reflux, are common digestive ailments often of short duration. Liver diseases such as fatty liver, viral hepatitis, and cirrhosis are predominantly attributed to genetic factors, viral infections, and alcohol consumption, characterized by liver cell impairment. Over time, this damage can progress to the formation of fibrous bands (scars), leading to liver failure and posing a threat to the patient's life. Seeking a gastroscopy & hepatology examination with a specialist at Yersin International Clinic assists patients in recognizing early signs of the disease in its initial stages, enabling more effective prevention and treatment.

Preparation before check-up:

• It is necessary to refrain from consuming food and beverages for a minimum of 8 hours before undergoing a blood test. However, drinking plain water is permissible during the fasting period.
• On the day of your blood test, please avoid taking any medications you usually use (such as diabetic medications). However, you may continue taking regular high blood pressure medication.
• To ensure accurate results during the abdominal ultrasound, please drink plain water and refrain from urinating.
• During X-ray and electrocardiogram procedures, it is advised to wear clothing without metal buttons and avoid wearing metal jewelry. This is to prevent any confusion, interference with image insertion, or interference with the electrocardiogram readings.
