Comparing standard and 3D colonoscopy for detecting adenomas in patients with positive fecal tests

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study compares the effectiveness of conventional colonoscopy with a 3D colonoscopy technique in detecting adenomas in patients who have tested positive on a fecal immunochemical test. The focus is on improving the adenoma detection rate (ADR), which is crucial for preventing colorectal cancer. The study aims to determine if the 3D technology can enhance the detection of non-polypoid lesions that are often missed during standard procedures. Participants will undergo colonoscopy using both methods to evaluate performance differences.
