Location of Adenomas Missed by Optical Colonoscopy

Figure 1. Flowchart shows the total number of polyps detected; the number of polyps eligible for unblinding (size ≥ 5 mm); and the number of unblinded adenomas that measured 6 mm or larger, which represent the primary study group. The 10 unblinded adenomas that measured 5 mm were excluded because of their diminutive size. VC = virtual colonoscopy.
