Colonoscopy
What is a Colonoscopy?
Colonoscopy enables your doctor to examine the lining of your large intestine (colon) for abnormalities by inserting a flexible tube as thick as your finger into your anus and slowly advancing it into the rectum and colon. This instrument, called a colonoscope, has its own lens and light source and it allows your doctor to view images on a video monitor.
