Improved Desrtruction of Colon Polyps under Combined Colonoscopy and Cryogenic Surgery
نویسنده
چکیده
Along with development of modern imaging techniques in cancer biology, cryosurgery is emerging as minimally invasive surgical technique in treatment of some specific tumors (kidney, breasts, and bones, liver). Colon polyps/cancers are second largest cancers among humans with high death rate. They are diagnosed under various endoscopic methods/CT/MRI scans, and treated with surgical resection. Here, an alternative approach is proposed for the destruction of colon polyps under cryosurgery with colonoscopy probes. To increase the accurate freezing and destruction, nanoparticles are loaded in cryo probes. Thermal heat capacity equation is determined by PENNE’S bio heat equations. This procedure is relatively safe and long term survival rate may be increased, with fewer side effects compared with normal surgical resection and radiotherapies.

Investigating the Relationship between Red Blood Cell Distribution Width and Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer and Colonic Polyps
Background: Colorectal cancer is a common cancer and has a high rate of mortality and morbidity. This can be reduced by screening tests. Some of the studies have recently referred to Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) as a marker for early detection of various cancers. The aim of this study was to investigate the RDW and early detection of colorectal cancer and polyp. M...
متن کاملColorectal neoplasm detection using virtual colonoscopy: a feasibility study.
BACKGROUND Virtual colonoscopy is a potentially powerful tool for non-invasive colorectal evaluation. In vitro studies have established its accuracy in simulated polyp detection but little data exist regarding its use in clinical practice. AIMS To evaluate the ability of virtual colonoscopy to detect colorectal cancers and polyps in patients with endoscopically proven colorectal neoplasms and...
متن کاملComparison of standard forward-viewing mode versus ultrawide-viewing mode of a novel colonoscopy platform: a prospective, multicenter study in the detection of simulated polyps in an in vitro colon model (with video).
BACKGROUND Although colonoscopy is the criterion standard for detecting colorectal adenomas and cancers, a significant percentage of adenomas are missed. OBJECTIVE To compare forward-viewing with ultrawide-viewing colonoscopy in the detection of simulated colon polyps in an in vitro colon model. DESIGN Prospective, multicenter. SETTING Six endoscopy units (3 in the United States and 3 in ...
متن کاملHydrosonography in the evaluation of colorectal polyps.
Prewarmed saline enemas and transabdominal ultrasound (hydrosonography) were used to evaluate 17 consecutive children with rectal bleeding before colonoscopy. Twelve patients with polyps were identified (10 by ultrasound, 10 by endoscopy): these included multiple hyperplastic polyps (1), multiple polyps (1), solitary polyps (9), and pseudopolyps (1). Ultrasound identified 11 polyps in 10 patien...
متن کاملDetection of Polyps After Resection of Colorectal Cancer
PURPOSE Because colonoscopy after colorectal cancer surgery is important for detecting synchronous or metachronous colorectal neoplasms, we designed this study to investigate, by using postoperative colonoscopy, the miss rate for and the location of polyps remaining after colorectal cancer surgery. METHODS In a prospectively-collected patient database, 264 patients were shown to have undergon...
