Summary

This study looked at 148 adults having a painless colonoscopy. Researchers used ultrasound to check when the stomach was empty after drinking a bowel-cleansing solution. They compared doing the colonoscopy within 2 hours versus waiting 2-4 hours after the stomach emptied, to see which timing gave a cleaner bowel for the exam.
