Texture and color enhancement imaging for detecting colorectal adenomas: Good, but not good enough

Abstract

Texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) has been developed as a novel image-enhancing endoscopy. However, the effectiveness of TXI detecting adenomas is inferior to narrow band imaging. Thus, future studies will need to focus on investigating the feasibility of such combination in clinical settings in order to provide patients with more accurate diagnoses.
