Can 3D vision spot hidden polyps better than standard colonoscopy?

NCT ID NCT06924489

First seen Aug 18, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026

Summary

This trial tests whether a 3D imaging device used during colonoscopy helps doctors find high-risk adenomas—polyps that could turn into cancer—better than the usual 2D view. Adults aged 18-75 scheduled for a diagnostic colonoscopy will be randomly assigned to either a 2D or 3D scope. The study compares how often each method detects high-risk adenomas and tracks any side effects for 30 days afterward.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
3D imaging device used during colonoscopy
What this could lead to
If 3D imaging proves better at spotting high-risk adenomas, it could lead to more accurate colon cancer screening and fewer missed polyps.
What could go wrong
The benefit may be small or not clinically significant, and 3D devices could have technical limitations or higher costs. Adverse events during colonoscopy are possible but generally rare.
