Using AI to improve polyp detection during colonoscopy

Is this trial a fit for you?

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

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing the detection of colonic polyps during elective colonoscopy. Patients aged over 50 will be randomly assigned to receive either conventional endoscopy or AI-assisted endoscopy, where the AI system will identify and classify polyps during the procedure. The study aims to determine if AI can improve detection rates and differentiate between benign and malignant polyps. Data will be collected on patient demographics, examination findings, and the performance of the AI systems compared to traditional methods.
