Colonoscopy is a diagnostic examination that uses an endoscopic probe to explore the internal walls of the colon and determine the presence of lesions, ulcers, obstructions and, most importantly, tumor masses.
This type of test is a fundamental preventative tool for everyone, although it is recommended as a screening test, particularly for people at risk. Thanks to a simple test like this, it is already possible to identify and, if necessary, remove very small tumors, thus preventing their irreversible degeneration.
