A new support device for left-sided colon polyp removal
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This early-stage trial tests a new device that helps doctors remove polyps from the left side of the colon. It might make polyp removal safer and more effective for people with certain types of polyps.

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.
This trial tests a new device to help doctors remove larger, non-cancerous polyps from the colon during a colonoscopy. It may make the procedure easier and more effective for eligible patients.
This study tests a new device that helps doctors see polyps during a colonoscopy. It may help find more polyps early, which could prevent cancer.
This trial tests a tool that helps doctors more accurately measure the size of polyps found during colonoscopy. Accurate measurement helps decide the best next steps for your care.
This study tests whether a computer-assisted system can help doctors better tell apart harmless and harmful small polyps found during a colonoscopy, possibly reducing the need for removing them. If you are having a colonoscopy and have small polyps, this may help guide your treatment.
This study looks at two different methods for removing large colon polyps to see which one better prevents polyps from coming back. It may help people who have a non-cancerous, flat polyp that is at least 20 mm wide.
