For decades or rather since time immemorial, doctors have made attempts to visualize the patients organ systems without making an incision; the x-rays and ultrasound can only tell that much. This limitation has now been negated thanks to the technique of ‘Endoscopy’. In this Endoscopy procedure a flexible tube called the endoscope is passed through natural body openings through the affected organ system and body cavities. With the aid of the light and camera attached to endoscope, the doctor can view pictures of your organ system on a color TV monitor.
