Although a healthy lifestyle does not offer absolute protection against serious illnesses, early detection significantly increases the chances of recovery. Diseases detected at an early stage can generally be treated more effectively and gently.
By making an appointment for a preventive colonoscopy, you are making an important and sensible decision to maintain your health, both as a precaution and to clarify any problems.
The examination can be made as pain-free and pleasant as possible for you by using appropriate medication for sedation (“sleep injection”). Our team attaches great importance to your well-being and professional care before, during and after the examination.
Colonoscopy is a procedure to examine the large intestine in which a flexible tube with a small camera (colonoscope) is inserted through the anus. This allows doctors to visually inspect the entire colon and look for signs of diseases such as polyps, inflammation or cancer. Colonoscopies are an important part of screening tests for the early detection of bowel cancer and other bowel problems.
Gastroscopy is a similar procedure, but it examines the upper part of the digestive tract, including the esophagus, stomach and upper part of the small intestine. Again, a flexible tube with a small camera (gastroscope) is used to examine the area and look for signs of disease such as ulcers, inflammation or bleeding. Gastroscopies are often performed to diagnose and monitor gastrointestinal diseases and to take tissue samples for further examination.
In both cases, these procedures are usually performed under sedation to maximize patient comfort. Freelance private doctors and the experienced medical team at Salvida Traun perform the gastroscopy or colonoscopy effectively and gently to provide the best possible care.
The costs for self-payers are as follows:
Making an appointment is the first step on the way to your endoscopy. It is best to make your appointment by telephone. Our team will help you to find a suitable appointment that suits your needs. Please provide relevant information to ensure the best possible care.
Before the examination, you will have an informative discussion with your doctor. During this consultation, the examination procedure, possible risks and the necessary preparatory measures will be explained to you in detail. You can ask any questions you still have so that you feel well prepared.
Proper preparation is a crucial step in achieving optimal results. Before the examination, you will be given precise preparation instructions, which may vary depending on the type of examination. We ask you to follow the preparation instructions exactly.
On the day of the examination, the attending physician will go through the steps with you again in detail and clarify any unanswered questions. To ensure the best possible comfort, the examination will be performed under sedation. It is therefore important that someone collects you afterwards.
Once the examination has been completed, you will meet with the doctor to discuss the results of the examination. The findings and any further steps or treatment recommendations will be discussed together.
that colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer in women and the third most common cancer in men in Austria?
Unfortunately, a healthy lifestyle alone does not guarantee that you will never become seriously ill. If a disease is detected before it has progressed, the chances of recovery are greater, as earlier stages can be treated more successfully – and more gently. This also applies to bowel cancer, which can be detected at an early stage with the help of a colonoscopy.
For all people aged 50 and over, the e-card is automatically activated for a screening colonoscopy every ten years. Please contact us at any time if you have any questions or comments.
Endoscopies allow doctors to view internal organs directly and detect problems such as ulcers, inflammation or cancer at an early stage. Early diagnosis means that suitable treatment can be initiated, which significantly improves the chances of a successful recovery.
Compared to traditional surgical procedures, endoscopies are minimally invasive, which means they are less traumatic for the body. This leads to short recovery times, less pain and lower risks of complications for patients.
During an endoscopy, doctors can not only collect diagnostic information, but also carry out targeted treatments. For example, they can stop bleeding, remove polyps or take tissue samples for examination in the laboratory.
