What does the FBI use endoscopy for?
- For Conducting Surveillance Via Tight Spaces
- Internal Inspection Of Complex Technical Systems
- Examination Of Improvised Explosive Devices By Bomb Disposal Personnel
- For Pre-Visualization Of Scale Models Of Proposed Buildings And Cities
Correct Answer

A. For Conducting Surveillance Via Tight Spaces

Explanation

The FBI uses endoscopy for conducting surveillance via tight spaces. Endoscopy is a medical procedure that involves inserting a flexible tube with a camera into the body to examine internal organs or cavities. In the context of the FBI, endoscopy is used to navigate and gather information in hard-to-reach areas during surveillance operations. This technique allows agents to discreetly observe and collect evidence without being detected.

Which of the following isn't a risk of endoscopy?
- Perforation Of The Stomach
- Internal Burn Due To Light Source
- Infection
- Over-sedation
Correct Answer

A. Internal Burn Due To Light Source

Explanation

Endoscopy is a medical procedure that involves inserting a flexible tube with a light and camera into the body to examine internal organs. While there are risks associated with endoscopy, such as perforation of the stomach, infection, and over-sedation, internal burn due to the light source is not a risk. The light source used in endoscopy is designed to provide illumination without causing burns or damage to the internal tissues. Therefore, internal burn due to the light source is not a risk of endoscopy.
