AI beats gastroenterologists in adenoma detection: trial
But greater detection doesn't necessarily mean saving lives, say researchers
An artificial intelligence program has demonstrated a higher adenoma detection rate than human gastroenterologists in a world-first, double-blinded randomised controlled trial.
The program, called EndoScreener, runs in real-time during a colonoscopy and sounds an alert when it detects a polyp. It was previously tested in a non-blinded trial.
