By validated criteria, we rendered an optical diagnosis and a confidence level (high vs low) for all polyps, using NBI. Our primary endpoint was the number of accurate high-confidence optical ...

NBI improves visibility of blood vessels and helps physicians observe complex polyps more easily than WLI, but NBI images often include polyps with small/flat appearances, background interference, and ...

Inflammatory fibroid polyps (IFPs) are rare entities. They commonly occur in the stomach, and a fraction of them are present in the small intestines. The exact aetiopathogenesis for IFPs remains ...

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease or colorectal cancer were excluded. Polyps sized <10 mm were assessed in real time by high definition white light, NBI and WavSTAT4 optical biopsy forceps.

There is evidence that colonic inflammation plays a major role in colon polyp and colorectal cancer development. For example, inflammatory bowel disease is a major predisposing factor for colorectal ...

NBI improves visibility of blood vessels and helps physicians observe complex polyps more easily than WLI, but NBI images often include polyps with small/flat appearances, background interference, and ...

Despite technological advancements, standard endoscopic practices, including colonoscopies, miss approximately 2.1-5.9% of polyps or ... Common modes include narrow-band imaging (NBI), iScan ...

Since most CRC cases develop from colorectal polyps ... Barrett’s esophagus and inflammatory bowel diseases. Traditional imaging methods, like narrow-band imaging (NBI) and white-light ...
