Summary

This study tests a simple web-based tool that helps doctors predict whether a large colon polyp contains invasive cancer. The tool uses only standard endoscopic images and basic information like polyp size and location. Doctors of varying experience will use the tool to assess polyps before and after a short training session, and their accuracy will be compared to expert opinion. If the tool works well, it could make cancer detection easier and more consistent across hospitals.
