Colonooscopy Services at Matrix Hospital
Matrix Hospital offers expert colonoscopy services to diagnose and manage conditions of the large intestine (colon and rectum). Performed by experienced gastroenterologists using advanced equipment, colonoscopy is a safe, minimally invasive procedure that helps in early detection, prevention, and treatment of various gastrointestinal issues.
What is Colonooscopy?
A colonoscopy is a technique that views the inside of the colon and rectum using a long, flexible tube that has a tiny camera (colonoscope) at the end. It allows doctors to:
- Visually examine the intestinal lining
- Detect inflammation, ulcers, and abnormal growths
- Take biopsies (tissue samples)
- Remove polyps or small tumors
It is a crucial tool in both screening for colorectal cancer and evaluating symptoms like chronic diarrhea, bleeding, or unexplained abdominal pain.
When is a colonoscopy recommended?
A colonoscopy may be suggested by doctors to look into or treat:
- Chronic Constipation or Diarrhea
- Rectal Bleeding or Blood in Stool
- Unexplained Weight Loss or Anemia
- Changes in Bowel Habits
- Family History of Colorectal Cancer or Polyps
- Follow-up of Previously Detected Polyps
- Screening for Colorectal Cancer (Age 45 and above)
