Hysteroscopy
A hysteroscope is a telescope-like device used to look inside the uterus. Hysteroscopy can be used to diagnose and/or treat problems in the inside of the uterus (endometrium). It is often combined with other procedures such a D&C (dilation and curettage). Endometrial ablation or removal of a polyp or fibroid in the endometrium are often performed with a hysteroscopy.
