Comparing Narrow Band Imaging and White Light for Detecting Colorectal Lesions
Narrow Band Imaging Versus White Light for the Detection and Miss of Sessile Serrated Lesions:a Multicenter,Random,Back-to-back Trial
This study is testing whether a special type of camera called narrow band imaging can find certain colorectal lesions better than regular white light during colonoscopy.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to compare the effectiveness of narrow band imaging (NBI) versus white light imaging (WLI) in detecting sessile serrated lesions during colonoscopy. It is a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial that will assess the detection and miss rates of these lesions using both imaging techniques. Participants will undergo colonoscopy with both imaging methods to determine which is more effective in identifying these specific types of colorectal lesions.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are individuals aged 45-85 who require screening for colorectal conditions.
Not a fit: Patients with alarming signs of colorectal cancer or those with confirmed colorectal cancers will not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved detection rates of sessile serrated lesions, potentially reducing the risk of colorectal cancer.
How similar studies have performed: Previous studies have suggested that narrow band imaging may improve detection rates, but this is the first randomized controlled trial specifically comparing NBI and WLI for sessile serrated lesions.
