AI trains future colonoscopy experts in new study
NCT ID NCT07420309
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether artificial intelligence (AI) software can help endoscopy residents (doctors training to perform colonoscopies) find more polyps. Ten trainees will be split into two groups: one using AI during training and one without. The goal is to see if AI reduces the number of missed adenomas (precancerous growths) and improves detection rates.
