Gastroenterology service upgrades in Latin America
Overview
Medical facilities in Argentina and Costa Rica are expanding gastroenterology services through investments in advanced diagnostic technology.
In Argentina, the Hospital Central de San Isidro implemented a US$ 140,000 high-definition digital endoscopy tower to replace aging analog and limited equipment. This upgrade aims to improve early disease detection and increase daily appointment capacity. Additionally, the Centro Integral de Salud La Banda inaugurated its first Digestive Endoscopy Unit within the public health system to improve access to colorectal cancer prevention and complex diagnostic procedures.
In Costa Rica, the San Carlos Hospital received a donation from the Junta de Protección Social valued at 178 million colones. This equipment, provided to the Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social, includes high-definition video endoscopy towers and various scopes intended to benefit approximately 400,000 patients through precise 4K imaging.
