What is a colonoscopy and what's involved?
A Colonoscopy is a specialized examination of the large bowel done with a thin, flexible electronic camera (colonoscope). The purpose of a colonoscopy is to detect polyps or other findings in the colon. Colonoscopy is considered to be the best and most accurate way to detect and prevent colon cancer.
At the Center for Health & Cancer Prevention, colonoscopy is done under a light anesthesia administered by a Certified Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). This makes the procedure painless, and virtually all patients awake from the procedure without any memory of the colonoscopy.
A colonoscopy in our office takes an average of about 10 minutes.
