New short camera could slash waiting lists for bowel cancer checks

NCT ID NCT07341126

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new short camera called a rectoscope to check the lower bowel after rectal tumour removal. The goal is to see if it can be used in the clinic with a simple enema instead of strong bowel prep, making follow-up checks faster and reducing waiting lists. Thirty patients will be enrolled in three stages to compare the rectoscope with standard cameras.
