An
Endoscopist
performs an Endoscopy in Tauranga. This involves examining the inside of the body with an endoscope, a lighted, flexible instrument that has a small camera on the tip. There are many types of endoscopes, and endoscopy, named according to the organs or areas they are used to examine (e.g.
arthroscopy
examines joints;
bronchoscopy
examines the lungs;
cystoscopy
examines the bladder and urethra;
laparoscopy
may examine the ovaries, appendix or other abdominal organs;
