Technology That Sees Beyond Symptoms
At the Sindh Institute of Advanced Endoscopy and Gastroenterology (SIAG), our mission goes beyond treatment — we’re setting a new standard for public-sector healthcare in Pakistan. Through the integration of cutting-edge imaging and motility diagnostic tools, we ensure that patients receive international-standard evaluations without delay, without compromise — and without cost.
Our diagnostic unit is equipped with globally recognized technologies such as FibroScan 530, High-Resolution Manometry systems, and Canon Aplio ultrasound, tools commonly found in leading international gastroenterology centers. These allow our specialists to detect disease early, understand it deeply, and tailor treatments individually — all while reducing the need for invasive testing.
By combining expert interpretation with these powerful machines, SIAG becomes one of the few public institutions in the region offering such advanced, high-fidelity diagnostics—completely free of charge.
For non-invasive liver assessment
The FibroScan® 530 by Echosense is a globally trusted tool used in liver centers worldwide. It performs transient elastography, a painless scan that evaluates liver stiffness (for fibrosis/cirrhosis) and fat content (for fatty liver).
Its XL probe is specially designed to accommodate obese or overweight patients, making assessments more accurate across a wider range of body types. With results generated in minutes, this tool helps guide long-term care for liver diseases without biopsy or hospitalization.
G.I. Solar MMS System with Esophageal and Anorectal Catheters
Our HRM unit is equipped with:
These advanced tools create detailed pressure maps of the esophagus and anorectal canal, essential in diagnosing:
SIAG is one of the few centers in Pakistan offering HRAM (High Resolution Anorectal Manometry) in a public setting, helping patients who have long suffered in silence due to limited access.
For detecting acid and non-acid reflux
This diagnostic test involves a soft catheter with 6 impedance sensors and 1 pH sensor, placed through the nose for a 24-hour period. It helps evaluate:
The test captures real-time episodes of reflux, even those not caused by acid — giving a complete picture of the patient’s esophageal function.
High-definition abdominal imaging
The Canon Aplio a is a world-class ultrasound system, known for its clarity, depth penetration, and Doppler functionality. With a curvilinear probe, our team can assess:
It also guides safe procedural interventions like paracentesis, improving care without exposing patients to radiation or contrast.
At SIAG, these technologies represent more than machines — they represent a commitment to excellence, equity, and innovation. Here’s why they matter:
But perhaps most importantly:
All of this is provided completely free of cost.
Through public-private collaboration, SIAG is removing financial barriers to world-class gastroenterological diagnostics. No patient is turned away, and no compromise is made in quality. This is the SIAG promise — to serve with dignity, lead with knowledge, and heal with integrity.
