New high-definition narrow band imaging versus conventional high-definition white light colonoscopy for detection of colorectal adenomas: a randomised controlled trial with tandem colonoscopy

This journal suppl. entitled: 19th Medical Research Conference; Department of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Queen Mary Hospital, Hong KongPoster PresentationINTRODUCTION: Adenoma detection is important in colonoscopy as polypectomy has been shown to reduce the subsequent incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer. Narrow band imaging (NBI), an image-enhanced imaging system of the endoscopy, is developed to improve the diagnostic performance of the endoscopy. We tested whether the new generation of NBI colonoscopy would improve detection of colorectal adenoma when compared with high-definition white light (HD-WL) in a randomised tandem colonoscopy study ...postprin
