A double balloon enteroscopy, often referred to as a DBE is a procedure that allows a doctor to directly examine the small bowel.

The doctor who performs the procedure, has special training in using a specially designed endoscope with two balloons, hence the name double balloon, that allows him to examine the small bowel.

REASONS FOR A DOUBLE BALLOON ENTEROSCOPY
The most common reasons to do a DBE include:

- To look for a source of bleeding from the small bowel
- To obtain biopsies (samples) from the lining of the small bowel to send for further (histologic) examination
- Removal of polyps from the small bowel
- Treating a narrowing (stricture) in the small bowel
