Colposcopy is a diagnostic procedure used in gynecology to examine abnormal cell changes in the cervix. During this procedure, a colposcope, a specialized microscope with magnification and lighting, is used. The doctor examines the cervix through the colposcope to detect any anomalies such as dysplasia or other irregularities. If suspicious areas are identified, tissue samples may be taken for a more precise diagnosis. Colposcopy is an important part of cervical cancer screening and allows for early detection of changes in cervical tissue.
