AI-based GI Genius boosts adenoma, sessile serrated lesion detection vs. colonoscopy alone (Healio)

The COLO-DETECT trial demonstrated that the GI Genius, an AI-assisted endoscopy module, significantly improves adenoma detection rates (ADR) and the mean number of adenomas per procedure compared to standard colonoscopy. The study, which included over 2,000 participants, found that GI Genius particularly enhanced the detection of small, flat polyps and sessile serrated lesions. Researchers recommend integrating this AI tool into routine practice to reduce the incidence of post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer by improving overall polyp detection.
