Endoscopy is a nonsurgical examination of the digestive tract. Using an endoscope, which is a flexible tube with a light and camera attached to it, your doctor can view images of your digestive tract on a colour TV monitor. During an upper endoscopy, an endoscope is easily passed through the mouth and throat and into the oesophagus, allowing the doctor to view the oesophagus, stomach, and upper part of the small intestine. Endoscopes can also be inserted through the rectum into the large intestine (colon) to examine it. This procedure is known as sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy depending on how far up the colon it is examined. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a type of endoscopy that takes images of the pancreas, gallbladder, and other structures. ERCP is also used to insert stents and take biopsies. Endoscopic ultrasound, or EUS, is a procedure that combines upper endoscopy and ultrasound examination to obtain images and information about different parts of the digestive tract.
