So when a company advertises a side-viewing, backward-viewing scope offering a 360° view, you pay attention. The Smart Colonoscope from Saneso uses 5 cameras for a multidirectional view of the GI tract, meaning you can see front to back, side to side and into the mucosal folds. The scope offers a number of bells and whistles, including advanced lighting options — a "select band imaging" feature lets the GI doc examine lesions using the spectrum of his choice, while the "dual band imaging" feature lets the doc use 2 spectra during a single withdrawal — and "shadow casting," a depth-enhancement feature that identi- fies hidden polyps by the shadows they cast. Saneso expects FDA approval to come through later this year.
