Diagnostic Surgery
Diagnostic Surgery is a medical procedure used to investigate and diagnose health conditions. It involves making small incisions to access internal organs or tissues, allowing doctors to gather samples or perform visual examinations. This type of surgery helps identify diseases, such as cancer or infections, that may not be detectable through non-invasive methods.
The information obtained from Diagnostic Surgery can guide treatment decisions and improve patient outcomes. Common techniques include laparoscopy and endoscopy, which utilize specialized instruments and cameras to provide a clear view of the affected area. This approach minimizes recovery time and reduces the risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery.
