Acetic Acid Dye Test for Finding Polyps During Colonoscopy
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether using special colored dyes during a colonoscopy helps doctors find and identify certain types of polyps (growths) in the colon that are easy to miss. If the dyes work well, it could help prevent colorectal cancer by catching these polyps earlier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 45 and 85 years old
- You need a colonoscopy for screening (routine check) rather than to follow up on known polyps
- You have not had a colonoscopy in the past 5 years
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You have not taken blood thinners like aspirin or warfarin within the past 7 days
- You do not have inflammatory bowel disease, familial polyposis, or a history of colorectal cancer

This study tests two different colonoscopy techniques to see which one finds more pre-cancerous polyps called serrated lesions. It may help your doctor choose the best way to screen for colon cancer during your procedure.
This trial tests whether a computer-aided detection (AI) system helps doctors find more small growths (polyps) in the colon during a colonoscopy. This could lead to better prevention of colorectal cancer.
This study tests whether artificial intelligence can help doctors spot certain flat polyps (called sessile serrated lesions) during routine colonoscopy screening. Finding these polyps early may help prevent colorectal cancer.
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 trial is testing whether using a clear cap on the colonoscope and doing a second, careful look at the last part of the colon helps doctors find more precancerous polyps (adenomas) during a screening colonoscopy. It may help you avoid missing polyps that could become cancer later.
This trial tests whether AI can help doctors better identify tiny polyps (≤5mm) during a colonoscopy in non-academic hospitals. It aims to improve accuracy without needing expert training, possibly reducing unnecessary biopsies.
