متن کاملDouble-Balloon Endoscopy after Incomplete Colonoscopy and Its Comparison with Computed Tomography Colonography
BACKGROUND/AIMS Because of the national screening program for colorectal carcinoma in The Netherlands, the number of colonoscopies has increased. In case of incomplete colonoscopy, computed tomography colonography (CTC) and double-balloon colonoscopy (DBc) are alternative options. This study evaluated cecal intubation rate and pathology detection rate in the previously unexplored part of the co...
