AI takes on tiny colon polyps: a game changer for routine scopes?

This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) system can help doctors in general hospitals accurately decide how to manage small colon polyps (5mm or smaller) during a colonoscopy. About 363 adults with at least one small polyp will be randomly assigned to have their polyps assessed with or without AI assistance. The goal is to see if AI can safely guide the "predict, resect, and discard" or "diagnose and leave" strategies, potentially reducing unnecessary polyp removal and lab costs.
