Image-enhanced endoscopy in practice
Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 11/06/09

S McGill et al. – The authors showed that nonpolypoid colorectal neoplasms (NP–CRNs) are relatively common and are potentially more dangerous than polypoid neoplasms of similar size because they have a higher risk of containing in situ or submucosal invasive carcinoma. Some nonpolypoid gastrointestinal neoplasms are fairly easy to detect and diagnose, whereas others can be quite difficult to visualize using white light illumination.
