A colonoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that examines the large bowel, including the colon and rectum, for bowel cancer or colon polyps. It can detect cancerous growths on the colon's lining. Endoscopy, on the other hand, examines the upper part of the gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum.

A colonoscopy is an endoscopic procedure used to examine the inside surface of the large intestine or large bowel to detect irregularities like inflammation, ulcers, and abnormal growths. It helps diagnose colorectal cancer, bowel disorders, abdominal pain, inflammation, ulcers, and anal bleeding. The colonoscope device, which includes a tube, camera, and light, is used to guide the doctor to examine the digestive system. If necessary, other instruments can be inserted through the colonoscope for therapeutic procedures like biopsies and polypectomy. These polyps, or growths, are removed during the procedure and sent for diagnostic testing.
You'll spend about two hours at the center.
A colonoscopy is essential for children to identify abdominal pain, diarrhea, or bleeding. If a polyp is found, a polypectomy may be performed, removing the polyp from the bowel wall using special tools.
Endoscopy surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a flexible tube with a small camera to assess internal organs. It is used to diagnose and treat diseases, allowing doctors to perform a biopsy to check for infection, damage, or cancerous cells in the organ.
