Abstract		Colorectal cancer is the third most common cause of cancer mortality and the incidence is rising. The detection and subsequent removal of neoplastic colorectal neoplasions, including adenomatous polyps and early cancers have been reported to reduce the incidence and prolong survival of patients with colorectal cancer. Distinction between neoplastic and nonneoplastic lesions during colonoscopy can increase the efficiency of treatment. High Resolution (HR) or High Definition TV (HDTV) endoscopy and Narrowband imaging (NBI) are imaging methods that are promising in detecting early neoplastic lesions in the gastrointestinal tract. HDTV is a video format that provides clear and high-resolution images, while NBI offers "in vivo" high-contrast image of blood vessels. In the article the author presents both imaging methods and the expectations of the developers of this endoscopic equipment.
Summary		Rak debelega črevesa in danke je tretji najpogostejši vzrok smrti zaradi raka v svetu. Zgodnje odkritje in odstranitev premalignih sprememb sluznice črevesja znižuje pojavnost raka črevesa, omogoča pa tudi daljše preživetje bolnikom, ki jim ugotovimo zgodnjo, lokalno zamejeno obliko raka. Endoskopsko razlikovanje med neoplastičnimi in neneoplastičnimi spremembami sluznice lahko poveča učinkovitost zdravljenja. Endoskopija visoke ločljivosti (High Resolution Endoscopy ali HDTV - High Definition TV) in prikaz NBI (Narrowband Imaging) sta obetavni slikovni metodi pri ugotavljanju zgodnjih premalignih sprememb sluznice prebavne cevi, HDTV je video format, ki omogoča prikaz sluznice visoke ločljivosti, NBI endoskopija pa "in vivo" natančno, kontrastno sliko ožilja na površini sluznice. V prispevku avtor predstavi značilnosti obeh prikazov pri bolnikih z rakom debelega črevesa in danke ter pričakovanja strokovnjakov, ki so metodi razvili.
