Aim: To assess the utility of modified Sano's (MS) the narrow band imaging international colorectal endoscopic (NICE) classification in differentiating colorectal polyps.
Methods: Patients undergoing colonoscopy between 2013 and 2015 were enrolled in this trial. Based on the MS or the NICE classifications, patients were randomised for real-time endoscopic diagnosis.
Aim: To compare high definition white light endoscopy and bright narrow band imaging for colon polyps' detection rates.
Methods: Patients were randomised to high definition white light endoscopy (HD-WLE) or the bright narrow band imaging (bNBI) during withdrawal of the colonoscope. Polyps identified in either mode were characterised using bNBI with dual focus (bNBI-DF) according to the Sano's classification.
