To take a colon biopsy using biopsy forceps, the physician first inserts a colonoscope into the rectum and advances it through the colon to the area of interest. Once the targeted tissue is visualized, the biopsy forceps are deployed through the colonoscope. The forceps are then closed to grasp a small sample of the colon tissue and retracted into the scope. Finally, the biopsy sample is retrieved for pathological examination.
