About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Colonic Polyps focused on measuring Colonoscopy

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 90 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients undergoing a routine colonoscopy screening
  • Patients must be over the age of 18
  • Patients must be able to give informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with bleeding/hemostasis disorders
  • Patients that are pregnant
  • Patients taking any anti-coagulants that would preclude them from undergoing a standard of care colonoscopy, such as Coumadin and Plavix, at the time of the study
  • Patients with known colitis or active bleeding will be excluded

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The goal of this research is to assess photometric stereo endoscopy (PSE) as an endoscopic imaging technique. Specifically, topographical surface contrast reconstructed from the PSE data will be compared to conventional imaging contrast to assess if PSE provides enhanced contrast of abnormal tissue.
