Outcome of Colonoscopy Screening and Surveillance

Status unconfirmed

Conditions studied: Gastroenterology

In brief

With this study, we plan to review the performance of colonoscopy in colon cancer screening and surveillance, especially with the recent improvements in endoscopic technology (high definition endoscopes), use of split dose preparation which provides excellent colon preparation for detection of lesions and increasing awareness and detection of flat lesions of the colon. The findings will help us define the role of colonoscopy screening of colon polyps and flat lesions and identity areas for improvement. The data will be used for continuing quality improvement and presenting our outcomes at academic meetings and publishing our results in peer reviewed journals.
