Background: Accurate diagnosis and early resection of colorectal polyps are important to prevent the occurrence of colorectal cancer. However, technical factors and morphological factors of polyps itself can lead to missed diagnoses. Image-enhanced endoscopy and chromoendoscopy (CE) have been developed to facilitate an accurate diagnosis. There have been no reports on visibility using a combination of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) and CE for colorectal tumors.
Aim: To investigate the visibility of margins and surfaces with the combination of TXI and CE for colorectal lesions.
Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent lower gastrointestinal endoscopy at the Toyoshima Endoscopy Clinic. We extracted polyps that were resected and diagnosed as adenomas or serrated polyps (hyperplastic polyps and sessile serrated lesions) from our endoscopic database. An expert endoscopist performed the lower gastrointestinal endoscopies and observed the lesion using white light imaging (WLI), TXI, CE, and TXI + CE modalities. Indigo carmine dye was used for CE. Three expert endoscopists rated the visibility of the margin and surface patterns in four ranks, from 1 to 4. The primary outcomes were the average visibility scores for the margin and surface patterns based on the WLI, TXI, CE, and TXI + CE observations. Visibility scores between the four modalities were compared by the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests.
Results: A total of 48 patients with 81 polyps were assessed. The histological subtypes included 50 tubular adenomas, 16 hyperplastic polyps, and 15 sessile serrated lesions. The visibility scores for the margins based on WLI, TXI, CE, and TXI + CE were 2.44 ± 0.93, 2.90 ± 0.93, 3.37 ± 0.74, and 3.75 ± 0.49, respectively. The visibility scores for the surface based on WLI, TXI, CE, and TXI + CE were 2.25 ± 0.80, 2.84 ± 0.84, 3.12 ± 0.72, and 3.51 ± 0.60, respectively. The visibility scores for the detection and surface on TXI were significantly lower than that on CE but higher than that on WLI ( < 0.001). The visibility scores for the margin and surface on TXI + CE were significantly higher than those on CE ( < 0.001). In the sub-analysis of adenomas, the visibility for the margin and surface on TXI + CE was significantly better than that on WLI, TXI, and CE ( < 0.001). In the sub-analysis of serrated polyps, the visibility for the margin and surface on TXI + CE was also significantly better than that on WLI, TXI, and CE ( < 0.001).
Conclusion: TXI + CE enhanced the visibility of the margin and surface compared to WLI, TXI, and CE for colorectal lesions.

Texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) may improve the visibility of gastric tumors and allow their early detection. However, few reports have examined the utility of TXI. Between June 2021 and October 2022, 56 gastric tumors in 51 patients undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection at Fukuchiyama City Hospital were evaluated preoperatively using conventional white light imaging (WLI), narrow-band imaging (NBI), and TXI modes 1 and 2.

Background And Aim: Few studies have evaluated the adenoma detection rate (ADR) of colonoscopy with texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI), a novel image-enhancing technology. This study compares the detection of colorectal polyps using TXI to that using white light imaging (WLI).
Methods: This single-center retrospective study used propensity-matched scoring based on the patients' baseline characteristics (age, sex, indication, bowel preparation, endoscopist, colonoscope type, and withdrawal time) to compare the results of patients who underwent chromoendoscopy using WLI or TXI at the Toyoshima Endoscopy Clinic.

Article Synopsis
- Precut papillotomy can be challenging due to difficulty identifying biliary orifices; this study investigates the effectiveness of Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging (TXI) compared to traditional White Light Imaging (WLI) for this purpose.
- The study analyzed 20 patients who had undergone bile duct cannulation, assessing how well evaluators could identify biliary orifices using both TXI and WLI in randomized image presentations.
- Results indicated that TXI offered better accuracy (50.6% vs. 35.6%), higher visibility scores, and greater color differentiation from surrounding tissue compared to WLI, suggesting TXI is a valuable tool for improving biliary cannulation outcomes.
Objective: A newly launched endoscopy system (EVIS X1, CV-1500; Olympus) is equipped with texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI). We aimed to investigate the efficacy of TXI for the visibility and diagnostic accuracy of non-polypoid colorectal lesions.
Methods: We examined 100 non-polypoid lesions in 42 patients from the same position, angle, and distance of the view in three modes: white light imaging (WLI), narrow-band imaging (NBI), and TXI.

Colonoscopy is the gold standard for detecting and resecting adenomas or early stage cancers to reduce the incidence and mortality rates of colorectal cancer. In a recent observational study, texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) was reported to improve polyp detection during colonoscopy. This randomized controlled trial involving six Japanese institutions aims to confirm the superiority of TXI over standard white-light imaging (WLI) in detecting colorectal lesions during colonoscopy.
