What is a "speculum"?
A speculum is a medical device used by healthcare professionals to examine body openings or passages, particularly the vagina or rectum. It has two hinged blades that can be gently opened to allow for visual inspection of the internal anatomy. Speculums are often used during gynecological exams or procedures to help doctors see and examine the cervix and vaginal walls. They are also used in urology to examine the urethra and in ENT (ear, nose, and throat) examinations to view the nasal passages. Speculums can be used across various medical specialties to access different body areas for diagnostic or treatment purposes.
