Image-Guided Colonoscopy: Patient Experience and Doctor Efficiency
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a robot-assisted colonoscopy system to screen for, monitor, or diagnose conditions in the lower intestine. It may be an option for adults who need a regular colonoscopy.
This study tests two new imaging technologies used during a colonoscopy to better detect and describe growths (polyps) in the colon. This may help doctors find and remove pre-cancerous polyps more accurately during the same procedure.
This study tests a new robotic device that helps doctors perform colonoscopies (exams of the large intestine) for routine screening or follow-up. The robot may make the procedure more comfortable and precise.
This study looks back at your CT scans to see if a new imaging technique can better show colon cancer details. Your participation simply allows researchers to review your existing scans and health records — no extra visits or treatments are needed.
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 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.
