Definition: Abdominoscopy is a procedure to view, palpate, and check for cancerous or potentially dangerous masses of tissue in the lower abdomen. It's done using a camera that's placed under the skin on the inside of the abdomen. The process usually lasts about 30 minutes. The doctor looks at the abdominal area with a special lighted microscope (a type of specialized telescope) to see the structure of the stomach, intestines, and organs in the lower part of the body. This helps doctors determine if there are any cancerous masses or tumors. It's important for patients undergoing this procedure to follow their doctorโs instructions closely and not eat or drink anything that might cause discomfort. If symptoms do arise after the procedure, such as pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, or difficulty breathing, they should contact a doctor right away.
