396 standard vs. endocuff vs. cap assisted colonoscopy for polyp detection: a randomized controlled trial
Adenoma detection rate (ADR) in colon cancer screening is most important for cancer prophylaxis. Recent studies suggest a benefit of endoscopic devices attached to the distal tip of the colonoscope for improving the ADR. This work is the first three arm randomized controlled trial comparing standard colonoscopy with Endocuff and Cap.
