According to a Jan. 28 news release, the Skout computer-vision system offers an “unobtrusive” set of eyes to more accurately detect sessile polyps, among the most challenging of abnormalities to detect via colonoscopy. 

“Adopting SKOUT marks a key advancement in Unio’s commitment to innovation, quality improvement, and value-based care,” said Edward Cohen, MD, president of Unio. “We understand that preparing for and undergoing a colonoscopy is a significant step for patients. Adding Iterative Health’s Skout AI technology to our centers reinforces our dedication to making colorectal cancer screenings as effective as possible for our patients.”
