The extent to which colonoscopists can recognize the presence of subtle colorectal lesions by visually distinguishing them from the surrounding mucosa (i.e., polyp recognition skill) may be one of several attributes that influence polyp detection rates. The aim of the present study was to develop and validate the first objective test of polyp recognition skill. Validation study. Twenty-eight experienced colonoscopists and eighty novices took a preliminary 280-item computer-based polyp recognition test. Items were genuine endoscopic images which participants assessed for the presence of "likely polyps." Half included clinically identified polyps. Participants clicked on a suspected lesion or a button marked "no likely polyp", and the main outcome measures were accuracy and response latency. The best items were selected for the final 50-item test. In the preliminary test, experienced colonoscopists correctly identified m...

Whilst adult guidelines suggest a computer display height below eye height, we observed many children working with displays higher than their eyes. This study aimed to determine the 3D posture and neck/shoulder muscle activity impact of an ultra-high display in children. We measured posture and emg in 24 school children
