Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are individuals over 50 years old who require a diagnostic, screening, or follow-up colonoscopy.

Probably not a fit

Patients with known polyposis syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, or those deemed unsuitable for colonoscopy may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence system in improving the detection rates of adenomas during colonoscopy. It compares polyp detection and adenoma detection rates in multiple centers using AI-assisted colonoscopy versus traditional methods. The study is observational and aims to gather real-world data on the performance of AI in enhancing colonoscopy quality control and polyp detection. Participants will undergo diagnostic, screening, or follow-up colonoscopy as part of the study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved detection rates of adenomas, potentially reducing the incidence of colorectal cancer.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using AI for polyp detection, but the effectiveness of this specific approach remains to be conclusively demonstrated.
