Linked Color Imaging (LCI) for Colorectal Adenoma Detection

Linked color imaging (LCI) is newly developed image-enhancing endoscopy technology that differentiates the red color spectrum more effectively than white light imaging thanks to its optimal pre-process composition of light spectrum and advanced signal processing. This technology, combined in the latest generation Fujifilm's endoscopes (Fujifilm Co, Tokyo, Japan) with new high-performance LED illumination system, enhances the visibility of colonic mucosal vessels and might increase the detection rate of colorectal polyps. Data available regarding colorectal polyp or adenoma detection with LCI are encouraging but are scanty and limited to back-to back studies. This two parallel arms, randomized, multicenter trial is aimed at evaluating whether LCI is superior to WL endoscopy in terms of adenoma detection
