Polish term or phrase: kolonofiberoskopia
Termin z karty informacyjnej z leczenia szpitalnego. Epikryza stwierdza, że u pacjenta wykonano kolonofiberskopię, a już na liście wykonanych zabiegów i procedur pojawia się tylko kolonoskopia. Czy to jest to samo?
Nie mogę znaleźć żadnych wiarygodnych informacji w internecie, dlatego proszę o Waszą pomoc.

Explanation:
As simple as that.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy (/ˌkɒləˈnɒskəpi/) or coloscopy (/kəlˈɒskəpi/)[1] is the endoscopic examination of the large bowel and the distal part of the small bowel with a CCD camera or a fiber optic camera on a flexible tube passed through the anus. It can provide a visual diagnosis (e.g. ulceration, polyps) and grants the opportunity for biopsy or removal of suspected colorectal cancer lesions. Colonoscopy can remove polyps as small as one millimetre or less. Once polyps are removed, they can be studied with the aid of a microscope to determine if they are precancerous or not. It can take up to 15 years for a polyp to turn cancerous.

fiberoptic colonoscopy


Explanation:
Fiberoptic Colonoscopy: A Dramatic Advance in Colon Surgery
A new instrument is now available which will allow direct viewing of the lumen of the entire colon from rectum to cecum. Biopsies as well as excision of some lesions are also possible through the instrument. The advantages to the patient are many and obvious.
