Arthritis
Medical Weight Loss
Generally, it’s a good idea to consult a doctor if you’ve gone more than 3 days without passing stool, as this could be a sign that something is wrong with your colon. Normal bowel movements are characterized as easily passing formed stools that aren’t too hard or sharp and that have a clean color (without blood or excessively dark coloring). If you have more serious symptoms, such as severe abdominal pain, bleeding, or sudden, unexplainable weight loss, you probably do not have IBS but should contact a GI doctor immediately.
Ear Infections
Because vomiting is a symptom and not a disease itself—there are various causes. Sometimes vomiting is triggered by certain medication, especially antibiotics. Other times, headaches, ear infections, brain tumors and any conditions that cause the pressure inside your head to increase may make you vomit. Simply being sick or pregnant oftentimes makes patients nauseous as well, which results sometimes in vomiting. In gastroenterology, your GI doctor may detect any of the following conditions as the culprit of your vomiting: acute gastritis (inflammation of the stomach tissue or lining), gallbladder disease, inflammatory bowel disease, delayed gastric motility, pancreatitis, bowel obstruction or cancer.

X-Rays
Computed Tomography
While CT scanning is often used to scan bone structures, such as the skull or the spine, a gastroenterologist would order a CT scan to examine the chest and abdominal areas for problems relating to the body’s digestive system. Common gastroenterological (GI) organs scanned by CT include the kidneys, the liver, the pancreas, the gallbladder, the spleen, the aorta, the ovaries, the uterus and the large and small intestines.
Chemotherapy
As with most cancers, early detection is the most important step of preventing liver cancer. However, most patients don’t catch the disease until they notice severe symptoms, in which case the cancer is most likely already spreading. Treating liver cancer completely means removing the affected portion of the liver with surgery altogether. Sometimes doctors will deliver chemotherapy directly into the liver by using a device called a catheter—but, in general, this only controls the symptoms and slows down the cancer, not cures it. Unfortunately, this latter method of treatment is the only option for almost 90 percent of liver cancer patients. There is also a newer technique which uses radiofrequency ablation directly to the liver tumor, and obliterates the cancer cells directly. There are some forms of systemic chemotherapy available for liver cancer, but their effectiveness is not great. Depending on the individual case, liver cancer can be fatal within 5 months. In order to work toward prevention and ensure early detection of liver cancer, most doctors recommend that patients should avoid drinking alcohol and prevent contraction of hepatitis with vaccines if you are concerned about liver health.

Kidney Cancer
Colon Cancer
Liver cancer, also referred to in medical terminology as hepatocellular carcinoma, is a tumor made up of harmful cells that develops in a person’s liver. It affects more men and than women, mostly in patients older than 50. Although in the United States other related cancers such as colon cancer and pancreatic cancer are much more of a cause for concern, developing nations in Africa and Asia are quite affected by liver cancer due to the higher rates of hepatitis B and C infection in those countries.
Endoscopy
Doron Kahana, M.D. is a gastroenterologist who has been met with positive responses from both doctors and patients for his unorthodox reliance on medical nutrition, along with regular endoscopy, to treat patients with gastrointestinal disease. He recently opened a private clinic—called the Center for Digestive Health and Nutritional Excellence (CDHNE)—where patients are monitored with dietary logs and analytic dietary consultations and given recipes that encourage a regular diet of plant-based products and a high intake of pre-biotics. He also practices at Torrance Memorial Medical Center and Providence Little Company of Mary Medical center in Torrance, California.

Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is a type of surgery which utilizes small cameras and mechanical devices at the end of small ports which can be inserted through tiny incisions into body cavities such as the abdomen or chest. It is a much less invasive operation than open surgery and is often preferred by doctors and patients alike. It usually is more cost efficient and causes less inconvenience for patients in terms of stress and recovery time.

Endometriosis
Endometriosis —women who are having trouble getting pregnant may undergo laparoscopic surgery for diagnostic purposes, to check for endometriosis or inflammation in their pelvic organs. These procedures are usually done after fertility tests suggest the presence of cysts, fibroids (tumors in the uterus), infection or abdominal adhesions (bands of tissue that form in the body and prevent organs from shifting easily around one another) may be preventing proper fertilization. Of all these conditions, endometriosis is the most physically painful, as it sometimes results in bleeding, and tissue may need to be treated with laparoscopic surgery.
Pregnancy

Skin Cancer
Many internal biopsies are performed with minimal invasiveness for the patient. A doctor can use modern imaging technology such as CT scan or ultrasound equipment to give the doctor a view of the inside of the body while he or she guides tools inside. For patients at risk for skin cancer, doctors often perform punch biopsy using a small, rounded blade in order to extract a tiny, cylinder-shapes skin sample. Oftentimes, a GI doctor can even access internal organs such as liver by simply injecting a long needle into the patient’s back or stomach. In more serious cases when a part of the body that is hard to reach needs to be tested with biopsy, open surgery or laparoscopic surgery may be needed to obtain the tissue biopsy.
Cyst
Ulcer
Upper GI series are usually ordered in response to patients’ complaints of dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), nausea or vomiting that persists for more than 2 weeks. The idea is that growths or other abnormalities in the throat, stomach and small intestine can keep a person’s digestive system from processing food easily, either by blocking the food content’s path through the GI tract or making food digestion a painful task. For example, an ulcer (an open sore on the inside of the body) located in the esophagus may be irritated whenever a person eats, which may cause uncomfortable symptoms and worsen if the ulcer is left unattended. Patients who suffer from gastroesophageal reflux disease (also known as GERD or acid reflux disease) often undergo upper GI series, as well, so doctors can check for underlying medical causes.

Physical Therapy
Possible treatment options include physical therapy to exercise your throat muscles, therapeutic endoscopy to dilate your throat using a balloon or medications to ease the symptoms of GERD and regulate acid production in your stomach. Surgery is only necessary to remove tumors in dysphagia patients. Contact a GI doctor for a consultation if you have trouble swallowing.

Laparoscopic Surgery
Although open gallbladder surgery does exist, it is much more common these days to undergo a laparoscopic gallbladder removal, also known as laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Laparoscopic surgery requires a smaller incision, results in less post-procedural pain and has a reportedly quicker recovery time. The procedure is commonly performed in the United States.
