Test for removing large, flat colon growths by endoscopy
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at patients who have a large, flat (sessile) or spreading growth in the colon that doctors plan to remove using an endoscopy. It aims to study the endoscopic removal process and outcomes for these bigger lesions.
