543 relevant factors and significant endoscopic findings for detecting colitis-associated neoplasms using pancolonic narrow band imaging surveillance colonoscopy in patients with ulcerative colitis: a sub-analysis of the navigator study

We recently reported the results of a prospective multicenter randomised controlled trial comparing pancolonic observation using a newly developed narrow band imaging (NBI) (CF-HQ290I) and panchromoendoscopy (PCE) for surveillance colonoscopy in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). The results revealed that the pancolonic NBI observation was not inferior to PCE for the detection of both neoplastic lesions (13.4% vs 9.0%; P=0.33) and colitis-associated dysplasia or cancer (CC/D) (6.3% vs 4.9%; P=0.86).
