AI eye on the colon: new trial tests smart detection for sneaky polyps

NCT ID NCT07650344

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

Summary

This study is testing whether a real-time artificial intelligence system can help doctors find more sessile serrated lesions (a type of precancerous polyp) during colonoscopy. About 628 adults aged 40-80 will be randomly assigned to have a colonoscopy with or without the AI aid. The main goal is to see if the AI increases the number of these lesions found per procedure.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Computer Aided Detection (CADe) system

What this could lead to

If successful, this AI tool could help doctors detect more precancerous colon lesions during routine colonoscopies, potentially preventing some colorectal cancers.

What could go wrong

This is a relatively small, early-stage trial. The AI may not significantly improve detection rates in real-world settings, and results may vary by doctor.
