Endoscopy

Endoscopy

A doctor can inspect the interior lining of the digestive tract through a procedure called gastrointestinal endoscopy. An endoscope is a flexible fiber-optic tube with a tiny TV camera at the end that is used for this examination. An upper GI endoscopy allows the examination of esophagus, stomach and duodenum. Ulcers, inflammations, and abnormalities in the colon can be diagnosed by colonoscopy. Enteroscopy can be utilized for analyzing the small bowel to detect GI bleeding, malabsorption and while performing surgeries.
