Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Our group has developed a polarization-gated spectroscopy probe capable of interrogation of the colonic microvascular blood content. A human pilot study demonstrated that the rectal blood content is elevated in the presence of colonic neoplasia.
