“We’re honored to be the first facility to have access to this new digital system,” said Isaac Raijman, MD, chief of gastroenterology at Baylor St. Luke’s. “While the original SpyGlass system helped improve overall efficiency and diagnosis, the new digital system enhances patient treatment and outcomes.”

SpyGlass DS is designed to allow direct visualization of the pancreato-biliary system.
