Editorial
An enteroscopy (also called a push enteroscopy) may be a medical test that's wont to check out the within of the tiny bowel. It's a kind of endoscopy procedure which will be utilized in the diagnosis and management of several differing types of digestive conditions. This test is completed employing a special tool called a push enteroscope (or sometimes by employing a pediatric colonoscope).
The enteroscope may be a long, flexible tube with a camera on the top that's inserted through the mouth, down into the esophagus and stomach, and into the duodenum (the first portion of the tiny intestine). With the utilization of the enteroscope, a physician can actually see the within of the alimentary canal, including the stomach and little intestine, and take one or more small pieces of tissue (a biopsy) for study. Additionally, because the tiny intestine is being accessed, it's going to be possible to administer therapy, like removing a polyp.
Some enteroscopes have latex balloons in them and are used for double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) or single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE). The endoscope has another tube inside it which will be wont to reach further into the tiny intestine. The balloons are used during the test to anchor the endoscope within the alimentary canal.
This technique may help see further into the alimentary canal, sometimes into the last a part of the tiny intestine, which is named the ileum. These techniques usually require specialized training to administer and make take longer to finish.
