Abstract
Adenoma detection and removal is one of the main goals of colonoscopy. Improved adenoma detection has been shown to reduce future risk of colorectal cancer. High definition colonoscopy allows better visualisation of the colonic mucosa and may improve detection of polyps. Previous studies have shown variable results when comparing polyp and adenoma detection between standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) colonoscopy. The UK bowel cancer screening programme (BCSP) offers colonoscopy to all citizens aged 60-75 years who test positive for faecal occult blood (FOB).
