It is called Endoscopy, and Oesophagoscopy if carried out with a rigid scope. The oesophagus is examined visually for inflammation, ulcers, stricture or presence of any tumours
Visual examination of the rectum and the anus is, Endoscopy

A surgical endoscopy always includes a diagnostic endoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
The CPT code 31641 can be used for flexible bronchoscopy that uses laser therapy. This code can also be used for rigid bronchoscopy.
There is no surgery to have a endoscopy. They give you meds go to sleep, they put a scope down your throat and look around. If they see something they may take a snip of it.
Patients not breathing adequately on their own due to severe respiratory failure may require mechanical ventilation prior to bronchoscopy. It may not be appropriate to perform bronchoscopy on patients with an unstable heart.
Depending upon the purpose of the bronchoscopy, alternatives might include a computed tomography scan (CT) or no procedure at all. Bronchoscopy is often performed to investigate an abnormality that shows up on.
