Computer-aided Detection of Colorectal Polyps

April 21, 2020 updated by: Timo Rath, University of Erlangen-Nürnberg Medical School

Development and Validation of a New Artificial Intelligence System for Automated Detection of Colorectal Polyps During Colonoscopy

In this observational pilot study, we assess the diagnostic performance of an artificial intelligence sytem for automated detection of colorectal polyps.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

During standard colonoscopy, a substantial number of colorectal polyps can be missend. As shown in a recent meta-analysis, miss rates for adenomas can reach up to 26%. In this study, it is tested whether an artificial intelligence system that highlights colorectal polyps during screening or surveillance colonoscopy in real time can lead to an increased detection of colorectal polyps during the examination.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Artificial Intelligence
In this group, an artificial Intelligence System will be used for computer-aided diagnosis of colorectal polyps. Diagnostic Performance of the artificial intelligence System for detection of polyps will be compared against Operator-based detection in the same group
