Dr. Brian Saunders, OMED Center of Excellence, London, demonstrates the technique of colonoscopy. This is an excellent tutorial on intubation, scope handling, and a demonstration of the “scope-guide”, a magnetic imager that creates a computerized view of the colonoscope continuously during the procedure. The imager is external to the patient and information is sent through miniature electromagnets embedded within the instrument. The processor actually portrays the actual twists, bends and loops of the instrument without the need for fluoroscopic control. Dr. Saunders is a world expert in colonoscopy and provides his patient with a minute-by-minute explanation of the entire procedure, fully explaining the intricacies of colonoscopy. This video will provide considerable information for the beginner and includes several points of interest even for the most experienced colonoscopist.
