AI eye on cancer: robot helps spot hidden polyps

NCT ID NCT07066046

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study will test whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help doctors find and identify colorectal polyps during colonoscopy better than standard methods. About 1000 adults having a routine colonoscopy will be randomly assigned to either AI-assisted or standard colonoscopy. The goal is to see if AI increases the number of adenomas (precancerous polyps) detected and improves accuracy in telling harmless polyps from dangerous ones.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Artificial intelligence software (CAD EYE) used during colonoscopy

What this could lead to

If it works, this could make colonoscopies more accurate at finding precancerous polyps, potentially preventing more colorectal cancers.

What could go wrong

This is a single-center trial, so results may not apply everywhere. The AI might not improve detection enough to change practice, and it adds extra cost and complexity.
