Overview
Colonoscopic spectroscopy and narrow-band imaging (NBI) may be helpful in the diagnosis of colon polyps.
Other Imaging Findings
- Colonoscopic spectroscopy may be helpful in the diagnosis of colon polyps.[1]
- Colonoscopic spectroscopy is a near-infrared autofluorescence (NIR AF) experimental method that is performed as an adjunct to diagnosis of colon lesions.
- It had 80% sensitivity and 90% specificity.
- Narrow-band imaging (NBI) may be helpful in the diagnosis of colon polyps.[2]
- NBI is an endoscopic optical image enhancement technology based on light penetration.
- It is one of the evaluated colonoscopy modality for diagnosis of adenoma.
