Abstract
Non-polypoid (flat and depressed) colorectal neoplasms (NP-CRNs), especially depressed in shape, are more difficult to detect by conventional white light colonoscopy (WLC) or computed tomography colonography, because the subtle findings can be difficult to distinguish from those of normal mucosa. Narrow band imaging (NBI) has been reported to highlight the mucosal capillaries of neoplastic lesions and thus increase detection rate of colon polyps, however, the detection rate of NP-CRNs, especially depressed in shape, has never been assessed.
