Answer:

Surgical Scope and Diagnostic Scope are the two types that are used for the endoscopic/arthroscopic procedures.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two types of endoscopic or arthroscopic procedures that are found in the CPT (full form Current Procedural Terminology) coding manual are surgical scope and diagnostic scope.

The surgical procedure, as the name suggests, involves the surgery (cutting) of the patient's body while the diagnostic procedure involves medical examination without any surgery.
