Procedure Prep Information

You are scheduled for a colonoscopy, a procedure in which a doctor examines the lining of your large intestine by looking through a flexible tube called a colonoscope. If growths or other abnormalities are found during the procedure, the doctor may remove the abnormal tissue for closer examination or biopsy.
