Undergoing an Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) is one of the most advanced tools for diagnosing issues with pancreas, biliary system and upper GI tract. It might sound daunting as well but at Harmony Digestive and Liver Wellness Centre, we guide you step by step for the entire process. We are proud to offer Private Endoscopic Ultrasound in Milton Keynes. This post will walk you through what to expect before, during, and after your procedure.
What Is EUS and How It Works?
Endoscopic Ultrasound uses two technologies:
Endoscopy – A thin, flexible tube with a light and camera travels through your mouth into your stomach till the start of your small intestine.
Ultrasound – A tiny ultrasound device at the end of the scope sends sound waves to create live pictures of your organs from the inside.
This technique provides much sharper images than standard external scans and is perfect for evaluating the pancreas, gallbladder, liver, and more.

Who Should Consider an EUS?
It’s also helpful for understanding unexplained weight loss or early signs of digestive cancers.
How to Prepare
Here’s what you’ll need to do before the procedure:
Good preparation makes sure that you have a smooth and safe procedure.
Sedated or Non-Sedated: You Choose
We offer both sedated and non-sedated endoscopy options depending on your comfort:
Sedated: If you choose sedation, you’ll be relaxed and likely won’t remember much of the procedure. This is usually chosen by the patients to be at ease.
Non-Sedated Endoscopy: If you prefer to stay fully alert, we also offer a non-sedated approach. This method is also gentle with low-discomfort and is also a safe and increasingly popular option. You recover faster and can usually return to your normal activities the same day.
What to Expect During the Procedure
The procedure typically lasts 30–45 minutes.
Aftercare Tips
If sedated:
Rest for a few hours after the procedure and avoid driving for 24 hours
Mild throat soreness can be expected
Most patients feel back to normal by the next day
If non-sedated:
You may leave shortly after the scan
Resume light activities the same day
If you have any discomfort, it fades quickly
