It's possible

When doing some x-ray and CT procedures, radiologists will refer to the "right colon" and "left colon", just meaning the right side and the left side.

Perhaps they are only planning to do a colonoscopy up to the splenic flexure rather than all the way over to the beginning of the colon at the cecum, over on the left side.

• Is there such a phrase as right colonoscopy - stupid question
  • He is saying Right colonoscopy as the procedure title - stupid question
    • It's possible - Okie MT
      • Since they start out on the left side, - Misha
  • Might be rigid as opposed to a flexible scope. nm - passing thru
    • But the right colon is mentioned in findings. Can we have - the whole sentence? NM
