AI vs. Doctor's eye: could software spot hidden colon polyps?
NCT ID NCT06077435
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study compares AI-assisted colonoscopy to conventional colonoscopy in 915 adults aged 50 and older. The goal is to see if AI helps doctors detect more polyps and better classify them as benign or malignant. Researchers will also compare costs between the two methods.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AI software (device)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, AI could help doctors spot more polyps during colonoscopy and better tell which ones are dangerous, potentially preventing colon cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage device trial. AI may not improve detection enough to change practice, and results may not apply to all hospitals or patient groups.
