A barium enema is used to do a radiograph of the lower gastrointestinal tract, to examine the intestinal walls.

A colonoscopy involves using a camera to do a visual inspection of the entire lower intestine, looking for cancerous growths, tears, and precancerous polyps. Polyps may be routinely removed along with biopsy samples as the examination proceeds, which is one reason the colon must be as clean as possible.
