Endoscopic Procedures
Endoscopic procedures are medical techniques that allow doctors to examine and treat internal organs using a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope. This tube has a light and camera on one end, enabling physicians to see inside the body without making large incisions. Endoscopes can be inserted through natural openings, like the mouth or rectum, or through small incisions. These procedures are often used for diagnosis, such as checking for tumors or ulcers, and can also assist in treatment, such as removing tissue samples or performing minor surgeries, leading to quicker recovery and less discomfort for patients.
