AI boosts polyp detection in colonoscopy: over 5,000 tested
NCT ID NCT05322993
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study tested whether an AI system called GI Genius helps doctors spot polyps during colonoscopy. Over 5,000 adults participated. The goal was to see if AI improves detection rates and whether using AI has a lasting learning effect. Results could lead to better colon cancer screening.
What this could mean
