Artificial intelligence in polyp detection – where are we and where are we headed? (BPG)

The goal of artificial intelligence in colonoscopy is to improve adenoma detection rate and reduce interval colorectal cancer. Artificial intelligence in polyp detection during colonoscopy has evolved tremendously over the last decade mainly due to the implementation of neural networks. Computer aided detection (CADe) utilizing neural networks allows real time detection of polyps and adenomas. Current CADe systems are built in single centers by multidisciplinary teams and have only been utilized in limited clinical research studies.
