Colonoscopy is the diagnostic and investigatory screening procedure of colon/large intestine performed routinely to evaluate any colon polyps, precancerous lesions or gastrointestinal diseases like inflammatory bowel disease. It is usually recommended at the age of 45 years and onwards, scheduled again for 5 or 10 years based on the previous results of colon screening.
Your Gastroenterologist may order for the colonoscopy for symptoms like rectal bleeding, severe abdominal pain, blood in stools and evaluation of diseases such as Crohn's disease, gastric or intestinal ulcers, colitis, and large bowel obstructions. Adhering to certain dietary preparations prior to colonoscopy is essential to get accurate results. It is performed with help of flexible thin tube/catheter with illuminated camera fixed at the end. It is passed through the anus till it reaches the colon and the doctor examines for any abnormalities.
