Conditions

Colon Carcinoma, Colonic Polyps, Intestinal Polyps

Brief summary

Lesions, polyps and other abnormalities in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract have a different composition compared to the normal mucose. The investigators plan to gather spectroscopic information from these features. Characterizing their unique spectrums, may help to enhance the detection and identification of these objects during endoscopy.

Interventions

PROCEDUREAn optical fiber, inside the work channel of an endoscope, is added to the endoscopic examination

An optical fiber, inside the work channel of an endoscope, connected to a spectroscope, enables measuring the spectrum of objects seen by the endoscope
