Our colonoscopy examinations

When is colonoscopy recommended?

Changes in bowel habits: If you have had unexplained diarrhoea, constipation, or alternating bouts of both, for some time.

Visible or hidden bleeding: If you notice blood in your stool, or a laboratory test has shown a positive faecal occult blood result.

Unexplained abdominal symptoms: If you are worried about recurring abdominal pain, cramps, chronic bloating or a lump you can feel in your abdomen.

Anaemia and weight loss: If you develop iron-deficiency anaemia of unknown origin or sudden, drastic weight loss.

Suspected inflammatory bowel disease: If Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis (colitis ulcerosa) is suspected.

Screening over the age of 45–50: Once you have reached this age, screening is recommended to prevent colorectal cancer, even if you have no symptoms.

Family history (genetics): If bowel polyps or cancer have occurred in your family.

Suspicious ultrasound or CT result: If imaging tests have shown an abnormality in the large intestine.

Why choose colonoscopy under anaesthesia?

I. 

Completely painless 

Thanks to deep sedation with an intravenous anaesthetic, which ensures a comfortable, deep sleep, you feel nothing of the examination. No discomfort, no tension – the procedure is completely stress-free.

II. 

Expert anaesthetic safety

Anaesthesia is managed by a dedicated specialist anaesthetist, who continuously monitors your vital functions with modern monitors throughout the examination, ensuring maximum safety and a quick awakening free of after-effects.

III. 

Two examinations under a single anaesthetic

Taking advantage of the comfort of anaesthesia, it is also possible to have gastroscopy and colonoscopy performed together in one go. This saves you time, and we can map your entire digestive tract with a single preparation and a single anaesthetic.

The test process step by step

Preparation at home

An accurate diagnosis and perfect visibility depend on a clean bowel. Our doctors and nurses will give you detailed information and continuous support through the steps of the special diet and the effective laxative treatment at home.

Positioning and sedation

In the examination room, you lie comfortably on your left side with your knees drawn up. The specialist anaesthetist administers the modern anaesthetic, and you immediately fall into a deep, restful sleep. Our nurses pay particular attention to your safety throughout.

High-tech examination

The specialist gastroenterologist gently passes the thin, flexible colonoscope through the entire large intestine. Our modern, high-resolution HD video endoscopy system provides razor-sharp images, while the use of carbon dioxide keeps bloating after the procedure to a minimum.

Procedure and waking up

If the doctor sees a suspicious change or a polyp, a sample is taken or the polyp is removed immediately through the channel, completely painlessly. This way, treatment happens at the same time, and you then wake up safely in a pleasant recovery room.

The aim of colonoscopy is to detect changes inside the bowel – such as polyps, narrowing, inflammation or even a tumour – and to treat them if necessary.
