Which procedure is used to visualize the inside of the uterus with an endoscope?

• A. Hysteroscopy
• B. KUB
• C. Laparoscopy
• D. Hematocrit (Hct)

Answer: (A)

Visualizing the inside of the uterus with an endoscope is done with hysteroscopy. A hysteroscope is inserted through the cervix into the uterine cavity, allowing direct inspection of the endometrium and any intrauterine pathology, with the possibility of biopsy or treatment as needed.

The other options don’t fit this scenario: a KUB is a plain abdominal X-ray that doesn’t involve endoscopic visualization of the uterus; laparoscopy uses an endoscope inserted through the abdominal wall to view the peritoneal cavity, not the interior uterine cavity; hematocrit is simply a blood test and has no imaging function.
