Anoscopy
An anoscopy is a simple medical procedure that can help your doctor identify an abnormality in your gastrointestinal tract, notably in your anus and rectum.
To perform an anoscopy, your doctor will insert a device called an anoscope into your anus.
This scope is typically made of plastic (disposable) or stainless steel (sterilizable). An anoscope allows your doctor to get a detailed look at the tissue within your anal-rectal areas.
An anoscopy can identify several conditions and diseases that can affect the lower part of your intestines. These include:
-
Hemorrhoids
-
Cancer and rectal polyps
-
Anal fissures
