Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to examine the inner lining of the large intestine (colon and rectum) for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. This procedure plays a critical role in the early detection of colorectal cancer, polyps, inflammation, ulcers, and other gastrointestinal conditions affecting the colon. Using a long, flexible tube called a colonoscope, which has a tiny camera at the tip, doctors can view real-time images of the colon to detect abnormalities. In addition to diagnosis, a colonoscopy allows for the removal of polyps, the treatment of bleeding, and the collection of tissue samples (biopsies) for further analysis.

Why Choose Colonoscopy?

Preventive Tool

Colonoscopy is highly effective for the early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer by identifying and removing polyps before they turn cancerous.

Diagnosis

 It helps diagnose the cause of unexplained abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, rectal bleeding, and changes in bowel habits.

Therapeutic Benefits

Polyps, tumors, or abnormal tissues can often be removed or biopsied during the procedure, reducing the need for more invasive surgeries.

Procedure Overview

During a colonoscopy, Dr. Jitender Singh Chauhan uses a colonoscope, which is gently inserted through the rectum to examine the entire colon. The procedure usually takes 30 to 60 minutes and is performed under light sedation to ensure patient comfort.

Preparation for the Procedure

Before undergoing a colonoscopy, patients are required to follow specific bowel preparation instructions to ensure the colon is clear for accurate examination. This preparation typically includes fasting and consuming a prescribed laxative solution the day before the procedure.

During the Procedure

Once sedated, a colonoscope is inserted into the rectum and advanced through the colon. The camera at the tip transmits images to a monitor, allowing the doctor to identify any abnormalities. If polyps or suspicious tissues are found, they can be removed or biopsied during the procedure.

Post-Procedure Recovery

After the colonoscopy, patients are monitored until the effects of sedation wear off. Mild bloating or discomfort may occur, but most patients can resume normal activities by the next day. Dr. Jitender Singh Chauhan will discuss initial findings immediately after the procedure, with biopsy results typically available within a few days.
