re-examining
Scrutinizing once more
Re-examining is looking at something again, typically with fresh perspective or greater scrutiny.
You might re-examine evidence after new information surfaces, or re-examine your assumptions when results don't match expectations: The committee is re-examining its policies on remote work.
The word implies more than casual review—a deliberate return to assess what might have been missed or misunderstood.
