Sigmoidoscopy

Sigmoidoscopy is a medical procedure used to examine the lower part of the large intestine, including the rectum and sigmoid colon. It is performed using a sigmoidoscope, a thin, flexible tube with a light and camera, which provides real-time images of the intestinal lining.

Sigmoidoscopy helps diagnose conditions such as polyps, diverticulitis, colorectal cancer, and inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically requires less preparation than a full colonoscopy. It can also include biopsy or removal of small polyps. Sigmoidoscopy is a valuable tool for detecting and managing diseases of the lower gastrointestinal tract.
