A colonoscopy is a test using a scope and video that lets your healthcare professional examine the lining of your colon and rectum. Colonoscopy can detect polyps (growths on the lining of the colon or rectum) and early cancers. Removal of polyps, which generally can be performed during colonoscopy, can prevent colorectal cancer.
