Spectral Focused Imaging Versus White Light Imaging in Colorectal Adenoma Detection

Spectral Focused Imaging (SFI) is newly developed image-enhancing endoscopy technology that enhances the contrast of target tissue structures while improving color contrast because spectral signal energy is further concentrated on the absorption peak wavelength of microvessels by using digital spectral processing techniques. This technology, combined in the latest generation SonoScape\'s endoscopes (SonoScape Co, Shenzhen, China) 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 SFI are encouraging but are scanty and limited to back-to back studies. This two parallel arms, randomized, multicenter trial is aimed at evaluating whether SFI is superior to WLI endoscopy in terms of adenoma detection
