Screening colonoscopy with high-definition technology significantly improved both PDR and ADR. In addition, high-definition colonoscopy may be particularly useful and advantageous among less experienced endoscopists in various community settings. However, there needs to be application to specific patient populations in future studies to assess for any statistical differences between standard- and high-definition modalities to determine clinical utility.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
