This course allows for a high-precision gastroscopy and colonoscopy to be performed together in one session. For those who have difficulty taking laxatives, we also offer a no-laxative option.

Basic Plan:
After taking a laxative at the hotel or in the clinic, both gastroscopy and colonoscopy will be performed simultaneously.

No-Laxative Plan:
During gastroscopy, a laxative is directly administered into the duodenum using an endoscope, eliminating the need for oral laxative intake.
※ After the laxative is administered, it takes approximately 2 hours for bowel movements to cleanse the intestines. Colonoscopy will be performed afterward. As a result, the total time spent in the clinic will be around 4 to 5 hours.
