The falloscopy procedure is used to examine the inside
of the Fallopian tube. Falloscopy is rarely requested and is usually performed
under a general anesthetic as a day case procedure. Falloscopy can be
performed at the time of laparoscopy, when
a fine fibre-optic telescope is inserted through the mouth of each tube.
Alternatively the fibre-optic telescope can be inserted through the vagina
and cervix into the uterus. The entrance of each Fallopian tube is then
identified and the telescope is then passed into each tube in turn.
