Tarmundersøgelser

There can be many reasons to examine your bowel, whether it is colon or rectum. Today, the first choice is often a binocular examination with a video camera, whereas scanning and X-ray examination are more considered as a supplement.

The reasons for the various bowel examinations are typically:

  • Blood and / or mucus in stool.
  • Alternating stools or altered stool pattern for more than 4 weeks.
  • Persistent abdominal pain.
  • Weight loss for unknown reasons.
  • Anemia of unknown cause.
  • Familial predisposition to bowel cancer.
  • Screening for bowel cancer.

For colonoscopy, pay attention to the section on sedation, as there may be considerations regarding accompaniment and transportation.
