Quality Improvement Intervention in Colonoscopy Using Artificial Intelligence

February 10, 2020 updated by: Yanqing Li, Shandong University
Quality measures in colonoscopy are important guides for improving the quality of patient care. But quality improvement intervention is not taking place, primarily because of the inconvenience and expense. To address the difficulties above, we used artificial intelligence for quality control of colonoscopy.
