Rigid endoscopy

Rigid endoscopy is a medical procedure that uses a straight, tube-like instrument called an endoscope to examine and sometimes treat areas inside the body, such as the nose, throat, or joints. The rigid endoscope has a camera and light at its tip, allowing doctors to see detailed images on a monitor. It’s inserted through small openings or natural pathways, providing a minimally invasive way to diagnose or address medical issues. This technique improves visualization, helps in precise diagnosis, and can sometimes eliminate the need for more invasive surgeries.
