Colonoscopy in Palmerston North
The
colon
starts at the end of the small intestine and ends at the rectum and anus. A
Gastroenterologist
will undertake a colonoscopy using a long flexible tube (a colonoscope) and thread it up through the rectum and transmits an image to a viewing screen. The lining of the colon and rectum can be inspected for such things as inflamed tissue, abnormal growths, and ulcers. Colonoscopy in Palmerston North is most often used to look for early signs of cancer in the colon and rectum, and for causes of unexplained changes in
bowel
habits.
