Study of a new device to improve colonoscopy
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new tool called MiWEndo that helps doctors better see and remove polyps during a colonoscopy. It is for people who already have a polyp in the rectum that needs to be taken out.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a polyp in your rectum that a doctor plans to remove.
- You are able to give written permission (informed consent) to join the study.
- You are not at high risk for serious problems like bleeding or a hole in the bowel during the procedure.
- You are not taking blood thinners like warfarin or clopidogrel (unless they can be safely stopped).
- Your bowel is well cleaned (good bowel prep) and the colonoscopy is not an emergency.

This study tests a new real-time healthcare system meant to improve how doctors find and monitor colon cancer risk during colonoscopy. You might be able to take part if you are scheduled for a non-emergency colonoscopy and meet other safety and medical criteria.
This trial tests a computer-assisted measurement system during a colonoscopy to see if it can more accurately measure polyps. You might consider this if you are scheduled for a routine colonoscopy for screening or monitoring.
This trial tests a new way to do colonoscopy that uses a special clear cap on the scope and a computer program to help spot colorectal polyps (growths that can become cancer). It aims to see if this combination finds more polyps than a standard colonoscopy.
This study looks for new markers in the blood or stool to help diagnose colorectal cancer earlier. It is for people who have been referred urgently because their doctor suspects lower bowel cancer.
This study tests whether a new scoring system can help doctors better identify the type and risk level of certain polyps (abnormal growths) found during colonoscopy. Doctors will learn the system and use it to examine polyps, which may improve early detection of cancer risk.
This trial tests a 3D imaging device during colonoscopy to see if it helps find more advanced adenomas (precancerous polyps) than standard colonoscopy. If you are scheduled for a diagnostic colonoscopy and haven't had colorectal cancer or polyps removed before, this study might be for you.
