York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust has been awarded the money to lead national research into a device that could improve the clinical pathway for diagnosis of bowel cancer.
The research, which has been funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), marks a huge milestone for the Trust and is the biggest project it has ever undertaken to fund a national clinical diagnostic study.
Called the ColoCap study, it will evaluate a new bowel imaging technology for patients known as colon capsule endoscopy.
