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