What is upper endoscopy?

Upper endoscopy, also called esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), is a procedure that uses a lighted, flexible endoscope to see inside the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The upper GI tract includes the esophagus, stomach and duodenum — the first part of the small intestine.

Hello.

We have exciting news to share. ODS is changing its name to Moda Health.

Moda comes from the latin term "modus" and means "a way". We picked it because that's what we are here to do: help our communities find a way to better health.

Together, we can be more, be better.
