This retrospective study uses existing colorectal cancer imaging and/or preserved tissue samples to support more precise (personalized) research. It may help researchers better understand colorectal cancer over time, but it does not involve new treatment.
This study reviews medical records of people with colon or rectal cancer to better understand the disease. It helps researchers learn more without any new treatments or procedures.
This trial supports training for healthcare professionals to improve screening and early diagnosis of colorectal cancer. It may help by building skills in safely performing colonoscopies and spotting cancer earlier.
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 new camera probe that works with a standard colonoscope to take better images of the colon. It may help doctors find polyps or other issues more clearly during a routine colonoscopy.
This study tests whether using CT scan images to guide doctors during colonoscopy (a camera exam of your colon) improves how well the procedure goes and reduces doctor stress. You'll answer questions about your experience before and after the procedure.
