The Role of Chromoendoscopy in Evaluating Colorectal Dysplasia.
Chromoendoscopy pertains to image-enhanced endoscopic techniques such as dye-based chromoendoscopy and electronic chromoendoscopy using narrow-band imaging, flexible spectral imaging color enhancement, and i-scan. Dye-based chromoendoscopy has been demonstrated to improve colorectal dysplasia detection in high-risk patients with long-term inflammatory bowel disease, and electronic chromoendoscopy techniques have been shown to improve characterization of diminutive colorectal lesions, allowing for optical diagnosis during a colonoscopy examination. This article reviews endoscopic imaging using chromoendoscopy techniques for colorectal dysplasia evaluation.
