6-minute then 9-minute withdrawal
9-minute then 6-minute withdrawal
Patients in 6-minute then 9-minute withdrawal group will first be carefully observed in 6 minutes then in 9 minutes during the segmental withdrawal. At 6-minute withdrawal, the left colon, transverse colon and right colon will take 2 minutes each. Then at 9-minute withdrawal, the observation of the left colon, transverse colon and the right colon will be maintained for 3 minutes each. A stop watch will be utilized to remind endoscopists the withdrawal time. The time to perform polyp biopsy will not be included.
