Comparison of magnifying endoscopy with narrow band imaging (ME-NBI) attached balloon versus colposcopy for diagnosing cervical cancer, including acceptability of the endoscope: An exploratory prospective study

Not Applicable
Conditions
Cervical intraepithelial neoplasma, uteri cervical cancer
Registration Number
JPRN-UMIN000033189
Lead Sponsor
Kochi Redcross Hospital
Brief Summary

The detection sensitivity for patients with CIN2+ was not statistically different between the two methods (both: 79%, 95% CI: 66%-88%). For diagnosing CIN2+, ME-NBI tended to show a higher sensitivity than colposcopy (69% vs 58%, respectively), while its specificity tended to be lower vs. colposcopy (55% vs 70%, respectively). Patients reported significantly less discomfort and embarrassment with ME-NBI vs colposcopy.
