Docs, could a colinoscopy be used to check for bladder problems?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Colonoscopy only evaluates the colon. Cystoscopy would be the analagous bladder procedure.

NO: colonoscopy ( as the name implies) only looks at the colon. issues relating to the bladder will need to be evaluated using a cystoscope. the procedure involves insertion of a scope in the urethra and up into the bladder for visualization.
