Evaluation of colon mucosa using screening colonoscopy and flexible spectral imaging color enhancement in patients with long lasting ulcerative colitis

CONCLUSION: FICE was not significantly better at dysplasia screening than the standard procedure, but it effectively detected diminutive polyps and evaluated surface patterns without using magnification. FICE might contribute to the assessment of inflammation severity in patients with UC in clinical remission. However, more extensive studies are necessary to confirm these findings.PMID:34730883
