Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults over 18 years old who have been endoscopically diagnosed with colorectal polyps.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with severe cardiopulmonary insufficiency or those with certain severe medical conditions may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a 3-dimensional (3D) imaging device in accurately classifying colorectal polyps and adenomas during colonoscopy. Participants will undergo colonoscopy procedures using either the 3D imaging device or a traditional 2-dimensional (2D) imaging device, with the goal of determining if the 3D device enhances classification accuracy and evaluation of polyp size and depth. The study will also assess the safety of the 3D imaging device by monitoring any adverse events that occur during the procedures. Follow-up will occur for 30 days post-procedure to track any potential complications.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to more accurate diagnoses and treatment decisions for patients with colorectal polyps and adenomas.
How similar studies have gone: While the use of 3D imaging in medical diagnostics is promising, this specific approach to colorectal polyp classification is relatively novel and has not been extensively tested in prior studies.
