The aim of this study is to show Endocuff Vision could improve insertion because during loop
withdrawal the cuff tends to stabilize the position of the tip, preventing its backward
movement and speeding loop removal. Similarly, during inspection the main goal is to evaluate
the proximal sides of folds and flexures. The process is made easier and quicker by the
device. Third, during polypectomy, Endocuff Vision helps to stabilize the position and the
scope tip.

This will be a prospective, randomized controlled study. Subjects referred for screening or
surveillance colonoscopy will be prospectively enrolled. They will be randomized to one of
two arms, i.e High Definition colonoscopy or High Definition colonoscopy with Endocuff
Vision.
