Gastroenterology is a branch of medicine. Its area of focus is the functioning of the digestive system and its disorders. Hepatology and proctology are two important sub-fields of gastroenterology. Hepatology is a branch concerned with diseases related to the liver, bile ducts, gallbladder and pancreas, whereas, proctology is a branch that studies the disorders related to the rectum, colon and anus.
