(Concern) Deciding between endoscopy and angiography for examination
2024.05.29 21:04
This year is my health check-up period.
I had an endoscopy of my stomach and colon two years ago under sedation. Before that, I had a barium swallow test.
They say that the upper endoscopy is better for early detection, but it's cumbersome and difficult.
I don't have any of those symptoms at all.
Since I am older, is it better to definitely do it with an endoscopy?
Every two years during my health checkup, I always struggle whether to get an endoscopy or a barium swallow. Experts recommend endoscopy, so I think I should do that, but this dilemma keeps making me postpone my health checkup.

- 01CommentsIf you have a habit of washing your hands frequently and vigorously, your skin barrier may be damaged, potentially leading to severe dryness, flaking, or skin irritation upon contact with water. Since there are various possibilities such as chronic hand eczema, irritant contact dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, and damage to the stratum corneum, an accurate diagnosis appears necessary. If the appointment at Seoul National University Hospital is too late, please try inquiring at the dermatology departments of other university hospitals or tertiary general hospitals.651026.11.08
