Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

We hypothesize that high definition narrow band imaging (NBI) colonoscopy compared to high definition white light colonoscopy will detect an increased number of nonpolypoid (flat and depressed) colorectal neoplasm.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Interval colorectal cancers diagnosed within a three year period following a clearing colonoscopy have been reported at a rate of 1 cancer/1000 person years.The majority of these cancers are likely a consequence of a missed neoplastic lesion during routine colonoscopy. Recent tandem colonoscopy studies have shown no significant difference in adenoma miss or detection rates using narrow band imaging as compared to colonoscopy using white light. However, higher detection of flat neoplastic lesions using NBI was shown in a meta-analysis and should be furthered studied, especially considering that they are thought to be a strong contributor to a false negative colonoscopy.
