Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy is a gold-standard procedure for examining the entire colon (large intestine). A thin, flexible tube with a camera is inserted through the rectum, allowing doctors to visualize the colon’s inner lining and detect polyps, tumors, inflammation, and other abnormalities. Colonoscopy is a critical tool in preventing colorectal cancer, as it allows for early detection and removal of precancerous polyps.

Who Should Get a Colonoscopy?

Adults over 45 years (routine screening for colorectal cancer)
People with a family history of colon cancer or polyps
Patients experiencing rectal bleeding, unexplained weight loss, or chronic constipation/diarrhea
Individuals with inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis

Why is Colonoscopy Important?

🔹 Diagnose Cancer – Detects and removes precancerous polyps before they turn cancerous.
🔹 Accurate & Comprehensive – Provides a complete view of the colon.
🔹 Therapeutic Benefits – Can be used to remove polyps, stop bleeding, and treat inflammation.
🔹 Painless & Safe – Performed under sedation for patient comfort.
