Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18-75 undergoing colonoscopy for screening, surveillance, or diagnostic purposes.

Probably not a fit

Patients with anticoagulant use, inflammatory bowel disease, or those requiring emergency colonoscopy may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the accuracy of a computer-aided measuring (CAM) system for colorectal polyp size measurement during colonoscopy. It will be conducted in two phases: the first phase involves analyzing clinical videos to compare the CAM system's measurements with traditional methods, while the second phase will be a randomized controlled trial comparing AI-assisted measurements to non-scaled device assessments. The goal is to improve polyp size measurement accuracy, which is crucial for patient management and treatment decisions.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance the accuracy of polyp size measurements, leading to better risk stratification and treatment planning for patients.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using artificial intelligence for medical imaging, suggesting potential success for this approach.
