The group that used the AI tool had a higher quality of bowel preparation according to the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale compared to the group that performed routine practice self-evaluation, according to the study.
The study concluded that the AI tool could serve as an alternative for evaluating bowel preparation quality before colonoscopy.
