Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Comparing ETMI and CE for detection of neoplasia in patients with ulcerative<br /><br>colitis </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>- Diagnostic accuracy of ETMI vs. CE for the differentiation of neoplastic and<br /><br>non-neoplastic mucosa, using final histopathology as reference standard<br /><br>diagnosis.<br /><br>- Determination of endoscopic features that predict the presence of a colitis<br /><br>associated dysplasia (CAD), or a sporadic dysplastic lesion (SDL).<br /><br>- The yield of random biopsies, defined by the number of patients with<br /><br>neoplasia detected by random biopsies only (confirmed by histopathology).<br /><br>- Location of neoplasia detected during surveillance colonoscopy<br /><br>- Mean duration of both endoscopic procedures, ETMI vs. CE</p><br>
