Adjuvant chemotherapy of leucovorin-modulated 5-fluorouracil (5-FU/LV), capecitabine, and adding oxaliplatin to 5-FU/LV or capecitabine (FLOX/OX) have been standard regimens for high-risk stage II or III colon cancer (CC).

1. IntroductionThe sub-millimeter-diameter fiberscope is a miniature endoscope that transmits images through fiber optics and consists of an eyepiece, a cold light source, a fiber-optic bundle, a CCD, and a probe, as shown in Figure 1a. The light is sent from the cold light source to the target region through the fiber-optic bundles. Then, the probe focuses the light and collects optical information.
