Endoscopy is a nonsurgical procedure for inspecting the digestive tract. Your doctor can view images of your digestive tract on a colour TV monitor using an endoscope, which is a flexible tube with a light and camera attached to it. An endoscope is easily passed through the mouth and throat and into the oesophagus during an upper endoscopy, allowing the doctor to view the oesophagus, stomach, and upper part of the small intestine. Endoscopes can also be passed through the rectum into the large intestine (colon) to examine this area of the intestine. Depending on how far up the colon is examined, this procedure is known as sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, or ERCP, is a type of endoscopy that allows images of the pancreas, gallbladder, and related structures to be taken. ERCP is also used to place stents and perform biopsies. Endoscopic ultrasound, also known as EUS, is a procedure that combines upper endoscopy and ultrasound examination to obtain images and information about various parts of the digestive tract.
