Colonoscopy

What is it?

A colonoscopy uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera to examine the entire colon (large intestine) and rectum.

When It's Needed

This procedure screens for colon cancer, investigates symptoms like rectal bleeding or persistent abdominal pain, and monitors conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Why It’s Important

Colonoscopy is the gold standard for detecting and removing pre-cancerous polyps, significantly reducing the risk of colorectal cancer.
