First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study is developing an artificial intelligence system that can recognize different parts of the throat and nasal passages and detect abnormal growths or lesions. Researchers will train the AI using thousands of endoscopy images and then test its accuracy against doctors with varying experience levels. The goal is to create a tool that helps physicians make faster and more reliable diagnoses during routine exams.
