Detailed explanation-1: -There are two basic types of endoscopy: Upper endoscopy – The esophagus, stomach, and small intestines can be viewed by a thin flexible tube inserted through the mouth. Colonoscopy – The lining of the large intestine, colon and rectum can be viewed by a flexible tube inserted through the rectum.
Detailed explanation-2: -An upper GI endoscopy checks the upper GI tract. A lower GI endoscopy or colonoscopy checks the lower tract. Endoscopies are helpful if the patient has trouble swallowing, stomach pain, bleeding, ulcers, or suspected tumors. The test goes beyond standard x-rays, giving more useful information.
