ENT examination vs Fibroscopy at Elytis Hospital

Understanding the differences between traditional ENT examination and fibroscopy

At Elytis Hospital, we offer a full range of otolaryngology (ENT) services, utilizing both traditional examination methods and advanced techniques such as fibroscopy. Understanding the differences between these two approaches can help you choose the most appropriate method for your health needs.

Traditional ENT Examination

Traditional ENT examination involves using specific instruments to assess the condition of the ears, throat and nose. This includes:

Nasal speculum: to inspect the nasal passages and mucosa.

Abeslang: for examination of the upper respiratory tract.

Auricular Spectrum: for evaluation of the outer and middle ear.

Special mirrors: to visualize the nasopharynx and larynx.

Advantage:

Simplicity and speed: The procedure is relatively straightforward and can be carried out quickly in a standard consultation.

Comfort: It is less invasive compared to fibroscopy, offering increased patient comfort.

Limitations:

Limited visualization: Traditional examination may provide a limited view of internal structures, which can affect the accuracy of diagnosis in more complex cases.

Limited interventions: the possibility to perform therapeutic procedures is limited.

Fibroscopy

Fibroscopy is an advanced endoscopic technique that allows detailed examination of the body's internal structures. At Elytis Hospital, we use fibroscopy to evaluate both ENT and other internal regions.

Advantage:

Detailed view: The fiberscope provides a clear and magnified view of anatomical structures, making it easier to identify and evaluate lesions or abnormalities.

Therapeutic procedures: allows biopsies, removal of foreign bodies and direct treatments such as coagulation of bleeding.

Versatility: Can be used to examine multiple regions, including stomach, colon, bronchi and bile ducts.

When to choose Fibroscopy?

Fibroscopy is recommended in situations where the traditional examination does not provide sufficient information for an accurate diagnosis or when direct therapeutic interventions are needed. Examples include:

Diagnosis and treatment of severe sinusitis or laryngeal tumors.

Removal of foreign bodies from the airways or digestive tract.

Detailed evaluation of the lining of the digestive tract for persistent symptoms.
