peer agreement (net): +1screening colonoscopy Explanation: A screening colonoscopy is a preventative procedure for patients who have no symptoms of colon cancer. If a patient has related symptoms or has a polyp removed during a screening colonoscopy procedure, it automatically becomes a diagnostic colonoscopy. https://digestivecarephysicians.com/screening-vs-diagnostic-... pancolonscopia: con questo termine si indica l’esame completo dell’intestino crasso, dal retto fino al cieco. Dal greco “pan” vuol dire, infatti, “tutto”. Volendo quindi rispondere alla domanda iniziale, possiamo dire che i termini colonscopia e pancolonscopia in qualche modo si equivalgono, anche se è più corretto usare il secondo per indicare l’esame completo e distinguerlo dalle altre due modalità. https://www.fasda.it/pancolonscopia/ |

peer agreement (net): +1Colonoscopy Explanation: There's no need to translate basic here. Differenza tra colonscopia e pancolonscopia Il colonscopio viene inserito previa lubrificazione per via anale e poi fatta risalire a ritroso nel retto e negli altri tratti dell’intestino crasso, per incontrare nell’ordine: colon sigmoideo o sigma, colon discendente, colon trasverso, colon ascendente, cieco. Quando la colonscopia viene usata per visualizzare tutti i tratti appena elencati (cioè visualizzare completamente l’intero colon), prende il nome di “pancolonscopia“. Il prefisso “pan-“deriva dal greco παν- che significa “tutto, interamente“. Generalmente quando il medico cita il termine “colonscopia”, si riferisce specificatamente alla pancolonscopia. Altri tipi di colonscopia sono: sigmoidoscopia o rettosigmoidoscopia: anziché visualizzare l’intero colon fino al cieco, si limita all’esplorazione endoscopica dell’ano, del retto e del sigma. rettoscopia: anziché visualizzare l’intero colon fino al cieco, si limita all’esplorazione endoscopica del retto. https://medicinaonline.co/2017/12/23/differenza-tra-colonsco... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 51 mins (2021-03-04 14:07:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hi Bethany, I understand that it can be confusing but please read again. There is no difference between the two terms in Italian, they are synonyms, while in English there's only one term to describe it and that's colonoscopy. HTH |

Standard colonoscopy Explanation: "di base" means it's a routine exam, the one doctors mean when they talk about colonoscopy (no special testing/feature added to the standard exam). You could also use the term "standard colonoscopy screening" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 giorni 3 ore (2021-03-06 16:23:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- as for the term "Pan" it derives from ancient greek and it means "whole", so in this case the whole bowel is being screened. If you prefer you could also use the term "whole-colon investigation by colonoscopy" but as someone before me already pointed out there isn't really a precise term for the procedure in English as there is in Italian. |
