Colonoscopy

What is Colonoscopy?

Colonoscopy is a highly effective medical procedure used to examine the inside of your colon (large intestine) and rectum. It involves the use of a long, flexible tube with a camera called a colonoscope. The colonoscope is inserted through the rectum into the colon and upto the last part of small intestine known as Terminal Ileum.

Colonoscopy serves as a crucial tool for early detection, prevention, and diagnosis of colorectal cancer and gastrointestinal conditions.

Why is Colonoscopy Important?

Colonoscopy is vital for both diagnostic and preventive purposes:

  1. Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer: Colonoscopy is considered the gold standard for detecting colorectal cancer. Regular screenings can detect precancerous polyps and early-stage cancers when they are highly treatable.
  2. Polyp Removal: During a colonoscopy, our skilled gastroenterologists can identify and remove polyps, which are abnormal growths that can develop into cancer if left untreated. This preventive measure can significantly reduce your risk of colorectal cancer.
  3. Investigation of Gastrointestinal Symptoms: If you are experiencing symptoms such as rectal bleeding, chronic diarrhea, abdominal pain, or unexplained weight loss, a colonoscopy can help diagnose the underlying cause of these issues.
  4. Monitoring Chronic Conditions: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or a family history of colorectal cancer may require regular colonoscopies to monitor their condition and ensure early intervention if needed.
