Possible optimization of visualization with washing and/or the use of simethicone or similar, as pre-medication or during the examination, according with the physician's preference. Patients will be randomised to one of the following measurements-total time versus withdrawal time-in a parallel 1:1 scheme.~The allocation of the randomisation group will be computer-generated. The endoscopist must record the time at which the following three anatomical structures are reached (either by noting during the procedure or based on the information in the photographic documentation), before any biopsies or therapeutic interventions, in the format xxh:xxmin:xxsec:~1.
