Electronic Imaging in Colonoscopy: Clinical Applications and Future Prospects

Electronic chromoendoscopy (EC) is an equipment-based technology which could be easily activated by push of a button. There are four EC techniques available for use at present: narrow band imaging (NBI), i-Scan, flexible spectral chromoendoscopy and blue laser imaging. Out of the four techniques, NB...

description Electronic chromoendoscopy (EC) is an equipment-based technology which could be easily activated by push of a button. There are four EC techniques available for use at present: narrow band imaging (NBI), i-Scan, flexible spectral chromoendoscopy and blue laser imaging. Out of the four techniques, NBI has been extensively evaluated for the detection and characterization of dysplasia in colonic polyps and dysplasia associated with inflammatory bowel disease. In this review, we will focus on the new developments and applications of EC.
