Applications of endoscopy:

1.     Therapeutic:-

The following therapies can be administered with endoscopic equipment:

  • Hemorrhagic gastric ulcers are treated
  • removal of tiny tumors or fibroids
  • Taking out the stones (bladder or kidney stones, or gallstones)
  • Repairing specific joint issues using arthroscopy

These are possible without requiring open surgery.

2.     Diagnostic:-

This treatment is frequently used solely to visualize the tissues in particular places, which can be enough to diagnose some disorders. You can do biopsies with an endoscope to obtain smaller amounts of tissue for additional diagnostic testing.

3.     Endoscopic ultrasound:-

Endoscopy and ultrasound imaging are combined for several operations. This can be utilised to assist more difficult biopsies and stone removal while providing a clearer picture of deeper internal structures.

4.     Laparoscopic surgery:-

This technique, also referred to as “key-hole surgery,” entails a few tiny skin incisions through which endoscopes and adapted surgical instruments are inserted to carry out an inside procedure using the endoscopic cameras. This can, when appropriate, lower many of the hazards connected to open surgery and enhance the quality of life following a variety of surgical operations.
