Can gastroscope detect helicobacter pylori

Gastroscopy refers to gastroscopy. Gastroscopy can usually detect Helicobacter pylori.

In gastroscopy, doctors will take gastric mucosa tissue samples through gastroscopy, and then send them to the laboratory for bacterial culture or special staining techniques to detect Helicobacter pylori infection. At this time, patients can determine whether there is Helicobacter pylori infection in the body. It is recommended that patients go to the hospital for urea breath test, stool Helicobacter pylori antigen detection, histological examination and other items to assist in the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection.
