minimally invasive procedures

Minimally invasive procedures are medical techniques that diagnose or treat conditions using small cuts or natural body openings, rather than large surgical incisions. They typically involve specialized tools and imaging guidance, which allow for precise intervention with less pain, shorter recovery time, and reduced risk of infection compared to traditional surgery. Examples include laparoscopic surgery, where a tiny camera guides the procedure, and certain outpatient endoscopic treatments. These approaches aim to achieve effective health outcomes while minimizing physical trauma and promoting quicker healing.
