Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Colonoscopy is the standard method for CCR prevention, diagnosis, and
treatment, but it is painful and highly dependent on quality of bowel
preparation. This study describes the experience of the first 150 colonoscopies
performed using the Endotics System at S. Giuseppe Hospital in Milan (Italy),
demonstrating the effectiveness, diagnostic quality, and lack of pain even
without sedation. Moreover, at the patient's request, robotic system was
combined with Colon Wash technology, able to prepare the bowel in a comfortable
and effective way without use of purgatives.
