Endoscopy Procedures

Endoscopy Procedures

Endoscopy procedures are sometimes ordered to look inside the body for any signs of disease or abnormality using a long, flexible tube equipped with a camera.

An endoscopy can help diagnose a health problem, as well as possibly avoid the need for surgery. Some of the endoscopy procedures performed in BCMH Surgical Services include:
