Nurses assisted linked color imaging chromoendoscopy improves colonic polyp detection rate

چکیده
Objective: Linked Color Imaging (LCI) is a newly developed endoscopic imaging technique, which has been proved to be able to improve the diagnostic efficacy. Here, we aimed to investigate the effects of nurses assisted LCI chromoendoscopy on the detection of colonic polyp. Methods: A total of 200 patients who underwent colonoscopy from August 2015 to October 2016 in our endoscopy center were enrolled and randomized into White Light (WL) group, WL intervention group, LCI group and LCI intervention group. Endoscopic nurses assisted the endoscopists in completing the procedures in WL intervention and LCI intervention group. The polyp detection rate was compared and the characteristics of the polyp were analysed. Results: The polyp detection rate in LCI intervention group was significantly higher than those in LCI group and WL group (P<0.05). The left and right colonic polyp detection rate in intervention groups were both higher than those in non-intervention groups. Conclusion: Nurses assisted LCI chromoendoscopy could greatly improve the colonic polyp detection rate.

Polyp Detection, Characterization, and Management Using Narrow-Band Imaging with/without Magnification
Narrow-band imaging (NBI) is a new imaging technology that was developed in 2006 and has since spread worldwide. Because of its convenience, NBI has been replacing the role of chromoendoscopy. Here we review the efficacy of NBI with/without magnification for detection, characterization, and management of colorectal polyps, and future perspectives for the technology, including education. Recent ...

The aim of this pilot study was to assess the feasibility of using computed virtual chromoendoscopy with the flexible spectral imaging color enhancement (FICE) for colon neoplasia screening. A modified back-to-back colonoscopy using FICE and white light in the right-sided colon was conducted prospectively for the consecutive patients attending for the postoperative (sigmoidectomy or anterior re...
متن کاملThe good lies so near - in vivo diagnosis of colonic polyps.
It was in 1827 when Johann Wolfgang von Goethe quoted ‘You want to roam forever? See, the good lies so near. Learn to embrace happiness, because happiness is always there.’ Endoscopic imaging has seen many revolutions within the last 10 years. Those include the development of high-definition optics using charge-coupled devices (CCDs) and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensors, v...

Image enhancement technologies, such as chromoendoscopy and digital chromoendoscopy were reported to facilitate the detection and diagnosis of colonic polyps during endoscopic sessions. Here, we investigate the impact of enhanced imaging technologies on the classification accuracy of computer-aided diagnosis systems. Specifically, we determine if image representations obtained from different im...
متن کاملMissed adenomas during colonoscopic surveillance in individuals with Lynch Syndrome (hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer).
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Lynch syndrome (also known as hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer) is associated with an increased risk for colorectal cancer, which can arise despite frequent colonoscopic exams. We evaluated the adenoma miss rate of conventional colonoscopy in patients with Lynch syndrome, and compared the sensitivity of chromoendoscopy versus intensive inspection for detecting polyps mis...
