What is Gynecologic Endoscopy?

Gynecologic Endoscopy refers to laparoscopy and hysteroscopy. 

Laparoscopy refers to the placement of a telescope usually at the level of the belly button to examine and treat diseases in the abdomen and pelvis.

Hysteroscopy refers to the placement of a telescope into the uterine cavity to inspect and perform surgery for abnormal conditions in the uterine cavity.

For Physicians:

The web site has several sections that contain useful Endoscopic procedure information and photos that are written in a format to help physicians.
