Brief Summary
Colonoscopy is the technique of choice for evaluation of patients with positive fecal occult blood (FIT). Identification of polyps and their removal has been shown to decrease colorectal cancer incidence rates and mortality. Many endoscopic imaging technologies and devices have been developed to increase adenoma detection (ADR) during screening colonoscopies. They vary in the way they work, and some of the technologies are costly and not widely available. Studies has shown the simple to use pan-colonic chromoendoscopy can improve ADR compared to standard colonoscopy. However, there is little evidence on the utility of pan-colonic chromoendoscopy in asymptomatic individuals undergoing colonoscopy after a positive FIT test. In this randomized study, the investigators aim to compare the utility of chromoendoscopy and high-definition white-light endoscopy in asymptomatic individuals undergoing colonoscopy after a positive FIT test
