A Novel Endoscopic Device (Megachannel™) For Repeated Right Colonic Access During Colonoscopy
Patients scheduled for colonoscopy with suspected right colonic polypoid lesions will be
included. The prototype will loaded onto a 160 cm lower GI endoscope and introduced via
colonoscopic guidance. Time to cecum, total investigation time, clinical feasibility and
complications will be recorded.
