a medical procedure using a flexible tube with a light and camera to examine internal organs
Endoscopy is a medical procedure used to look inside the body using a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope. The endoscope has a small camera and light at the end, which allows doctors to see the inside of organs or spaces on a screen. This procedure is often used to examine areas such as the digestive system, lungs, or urinary system. Endoscopy helps in diagnosing and sometimes treating conditions by allowing doctors to view and often take samples from inside the body without making large cuts.
