assist while a veterinarian examines a horse's stomach lining with a
flexible endoscope. Gastroscopy is used to examine the esophagus and
stomach for abnormalities, including ulcers, strictures, tumors, or abnormal
growths. An endoscope can also be used to examine upper and lower airways

urogenital tract (bladder, urinary problems).
