Computer-aided vs. high-definition colonoscopy polyp detection: How they stack up

In a randomized trial published in the journal Gastroenterology, creator of the GI Genius intelligent endoscopy module, three Italian research centers found that computer-aided polyp detection increases adenoma detection rates over high-definition colonoscopy alone.

Here are six things to know about how intelligent endoscopy modules stack up against HD colonoscopies, according to the study: 

1. Computer-aided detection has a 14% absolute increase in adenoma detection rates 

2. Computer-aided detection has a 30% increase in relative adenoma detection 

3. Computer-aided detection has a 46% relative increase in adenomas per colonoscopy

4. Computer-aided devices have a 50% better chance of detecting multiple polyps 

5. Computer-aided devices are 53% more likely to detect polyps in the distal colon 

6. Computer-aided devices are 28% more likely to detect polyps in the proximal colon

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
