An EGD is an abbreviation for Esophagogastroduodenoscopy. It is also commonly referred to as an upper GI Endoscopy. GI is an abbreviation for gastrointestinal.
Flexible Sigmoidoscopy
A Flexible Sigmoidoscopy (sometimes referred to as a flex sig) is different from a colonoscopy in that it only examines the sigmoid colon (lower portion of the bowel).
