Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The investigators hope that this project will determine if the Endocuff device is a useful adjunct during colonoscopy by optimizing polyp detection and eliminating the need for the painful rectal retroflexion. As such, by improving polyp detection and eliminating the need for rectal retroflexion, it will directly reduce the likelihood of colon cancer and improve patient comfort respectively.
