AI eye in the colon: new study aims to catch hidden polyps
NCT ID NCT07308743
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a computer-aided detection system can help doctors find more polyps in the right side of the colon during a colonoscopy. About 686 adults aged 40-75 will have two colonoscopies in one session, with the AI system used in one of them. The goal is to see if the AI reduces the number of polyps that are missed on the first look.
