Advanced endoscopic imaging to improve adenomadetection

Advanced endoscopic imaging is revolutionizing ourway on how to diagnose and treat colorectal lesions.Within recent years a variety of modern endoscopicimaging techniques was introduced to improveadenoma detection rates. Those include high-definitionimaging, dye-less chromoendoscopy techniques andnovel, highly flexible endoscopes, some of themequipped with balloons or multiple lenses in order toimprove adenoma detection rates. In this review wewill focus on the newest developments in the field ofcolonoscopic imaging to improve adenoma detectionrates. Described techniques include high-definitionimaging, optical chromoendoscopy techniques, virtualchromoendoscopy techniques, the Third Eye Retroscopeand other retroviewing devices, the G-EYE endoscopeand the Full Spectrum Endoscopy-system.
