Endoscopy In Banbury
Endoscopy is a term which describes using a tiny camera, to look inside your body, perhaps your throat, abdomen, or colon. A consultant led procedure, at our private Oxfordshire hospital.
An Important Medical Tool
Endoscopy is a procedure which uses a thin, flexible fibre optic tube, light and camera, to investigate the health of your internal organs.
A range of endoscopic procedures look at different parts of your body, from your throat to your colon. They are primarily used for diagnosis, although can assist with treatment.
A channel inside an endoscope allows fine surgical implements to be added. Your consultant could take cell samples, biopsies, or remove suspicious growths, without any need for surgical intervention.
There are times when an endoscope is used to support other treatment, such as minimally invasive surgery. The primary uses are to screen for cancer, or diagnose internal diseases.
Understanding your symptoms without needing to literally look inside your body is a vital part of medicine. Supporting internal health and comfort, part of an agreeable life.
