New device to improve flat polyp diagnosis during colonoscopy
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new device that prepares flat polyps removed during colonoscopy to help doctors better identify if they are precancerous. If you're having a colonoscopy with polyp removal, this trial may help improve how your polyp sample is analyzed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a colonoscopy where the doctor will remove 1–3 polyps
- Your polyps must be flat or slightly raised (not mushroom-shaped or larger)
- Your polyps must be removed intact (in one piece, not fragmented)
- You cannot have a history of colon cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, or inherited polyp syndromes
- You must not have taken blood thinners like aspirin or warfarin within the past week
- You must sign informed consent agreeing to participate

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 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 trial tests two methods—EMR (a snare with electric current) and CSP (a cold snare without current)—to see which works better for removing small, flat colon growths called sessile serrated lesions. It may help you if you have a growth found during a colonoscopy that is less than 10mm and has certain harmless features.
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 trial tests a new device that helps doctors remove polyps from the lower part of your colon. It is for people who had a positive stool test and have polyps found during a colonoscopy.
