Texture and Colour Enhancement Imaging (TXI) Versus Dye Chromoendoscopy for Dysplasia Detection in IBD Surveillance.

Официальное название

A Randomised Parallel-group Study of Texture and Colour Enhancement Imaging (TXI) Versus Dye Chromoendoscopy for Dysplasia Detection in IBD Surveillance.

Обзор

In individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), bowel cancer can develop from abnormal cell changes (dysplasia). Regular colonoscopies are recommended to identify these early changes, which can be difficult to detect because they are often small and subtle. Dye-based imaging has been used to improve detection, but it requires additional preparation and time. Texture and Colour Enhancement Imaging (TXI) is a newer method available in clinical practice that adjusts brightness, colour, and texture on high-definition cameras. This study will compare TXI with dye-based imaging to assess which approach detects precancerous changes more effectively in patients with IBD.

Подробное описание

Bowel cancer in individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often develops from abnormal changes in the cells lining the bowel, known as dysplasia. International guidelines recommend undertaking regular colonoscopies to check for precancerous changes in patients with IBD. In the past, these precancerous changes were thought to be invisible, but with improved camera imaging technology, most cases of early changes can now be detected. However, early precancerous changes remain difficult to identify because they often appear as small, flat, and subtle lesions.

Studies have shown that applying dye to the bowel lining during colonoscopy can improve the detection of early changes compared with standard endoscopy. Nevertheless, the use of dye presents challenges, including additional preparation, longer procedure time, and the need for specific training. Newer high-definition cameras have demonstrated higher detection rates than older standard cameras. Advances in imaging technology have also led to the development of novel techniques designed to improve detection and identification of abnormal tissues. One such technique is Texture and Colour Enhancement Imaging (TXI), which enhances texture, brightness, and colour in high-definition cameras, making small and subtle differences in tissue more visible. This technology is now available in routine clinical practice with the EVIS X1 system (Olympus).

No randomized studies have yet evaluated the effectiveness of TXI in detecting early precancerous changes during colonoscopy in patients with IBD. The present study is designed to compare TXI with dye-based imaging in order to determine which method more effectively detects precancerous changes in IBD.

Вмешательства

• Диагностический тест TXI
  Participants allocated to the "TXI" group undergo withdrawal using Texture and Colour Enhancement Imaging, while those in the "Dye" group receive withdrawal with Dye chromoendoscopy. Both procedures follow standardized protocols outlined in the study design.

Первичные конечные точки

• To compare the proportion of patients with at least 1 dysplastic lesion detected using TXI compared with dye chromoendoscopy [Срок оценки: 6 months]
