Nasal Endoscopy
Nasal endoscopy is a safe, minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to examine the inside of the nose and sinus openings using a thin, flexible camera called an endoscope. It allows detailed visualization of nasal structures that cannot be seen during routine examination.
This procedure plays a vital role in accurately diagnosing various nose and sinus-related conditions.
