Filter by:Accurate classification of growths in the large bowel (polyps) identified during colonoscopy is imperative to inform the risk of colorectal cancer. Reliable identification of the cancer risk of individual polyps helps determine the best treatment option for the detected polyp and determine the appropriate interval requirements for future colonoscopy to check the site of removal and for further polyps elsewhere in the bowel. Current advanced endoscopic imaging techniques require specialist skills and expertise with an associated long learning curve and increased procedure time. It is for these reasons that despite being introduced in clinical practice, uptake of such techniques is limited and current methods of polyp risk stratification during colonoscopy without Artificial intelligence (AI) is suboptimal. Approximately 25% of bowel polyps that are removed by major surgery are analysed and later proved to be non-cancerous polyps that could have been removed via endoscopy thus avoiding anatomy altering surgery and the associated risks. With accurate polyp diagnosis and risk stratification in real time with AI, such polyps could have been removed non-surgically (endoscopically). Current Computer Assisted Diagnosis (CADx, a form of AI) platforms only differentiate between cancerous and non cancerous polyps which is of limited value in providing a personalised patient risk for colorectal cancer. The development of a multi-class algorithm is of greater complexity than a binary classification and requires larger training and validation datasets. A robust CADx algorithm should also involve global trainable data to minimise the introduction of bias. It is for these reasons that this is a planned international multicentre study. The Investigators aim to develop a novel AI five class pathology prediction risk prediction tool that provides reliable information to identify cancer risk independent of the endoscopists skill. These 5 categories are chosen because treatment options differ according to the polyp type and future check colonoscopy guidelines require these categories
The goal of this observational study is to assess the correlation between the artificial intelligence (AI) derived effective withdrawal time (EWT) during colonoscopy and endoscopists' baseline adenoma detection rate (ADR). The association between the AI derived EWT with ADR during the prospective colonoscopy series would also be determined. The colonoscopy video of participants will be monitored by the AI
The aim of the clinical trial is to investigate whether the use of a new multichannel endoscopic transanal access device (named UNI-VEC) is safe and effective in the resection of a rectal polyp or tumor that sits in the distal part of the colon (up to about 20 cm from the anal margin). This is the first study to test the device in humans, after proving its good performance in preclinical development (preclinical development has included functional laboratory tests and an animal trial).
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study is to compare the efficacy of cold snare EMR versus hot snare EMR for non-pedunculated polyps 10-20mm in size with respect to complete resection rates and adverse events. DESIGN : A Randomised interventional study. Sample size: 330
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the diagnostic yield of CADe in a consecutive population undergoing colonoscopy. The main question it aims to answer is the Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR). Participants undergoing colonoscopy for follow-up in a screening setting will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either receive Computer-Aided Detection (CADe) colonoscopy or a conventional colonoscopy (CC). GI Genius is the AI software that will be used in the present trial and is intended to be used as an adjunct to colonic endoscopy procedures to help endoscopists to detect in real time mucosal lesions (such as polyps and adenomas, including those with flat (non-polypoid) morphology) during standard screening and surveillance endoscopic mucosal evaluations. It is not intended to replace histopathological sampling as a means of diagnosis.Researchers will compare the CADe group and the CC-group to see if CAD-e can increase the ADR significantly.
Purpose & Research Questions The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether artificial intelligence (AI) improves the detection of polyps and whether the system can classify the type and severity of detected changes. The investigators will also assess if there are any differences between the various AI systems and whether the polyps that may be missed are benign or malignant.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the correlation between the artificial intelligence (AI) derived effective withdrawal time (EWT) during colonoscopy and endoscopists' baseline adenoma detection rate (ADR). The association between the AI derived EWT with ADR during the prospective colonoscopy series would also be determined. The colonoscopy video of participants will be monitored by the AI and the result of EWT will be blinded to the endoscopists
Colonoscopic removal of adenomatous polyps reduce both the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer (CRC). The common clinical management of colorectal polyp detected during colonoscopy is to remove them and send for histopathology to determine the subsequent surveillance interval. More than 80% of polyps detected during screening or surveillance colonoscopy are diminutive (≤5mm). As the chance of diminutive polyps to harbor cancer or advanced neoplasia is low, leave-in-situ and resect-and-discard strategies using optical diagnosis are recommended for non-neoplastic polyps by the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and the European Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) so as to reduce the financial burden of polypectomy and histopathology. The societies proposed leave-in-situ strategy if optical diagnosis can achieve a negative predictive value (NPV) of >90% for rectosigmoid polyp and resect-and-discard if an agreement of more than 90% concordance with histopathology-based post-polypectomy surveillance interval can be achieved. However, optical diagnosis is operator dependent and most endoscopists are reluctant to adopt this strategy in routine practice because of the need of strict training and auditing and fear of incorrect diagnosis. In the past decade, with the exponential increase in computational power, reduced cost of data storage, improved algorithmic sophistication, and increased availability of electronic health data, artificial intelligence (AI) assisted technologies were widely adopted in various healthcare settings to improve clinical outcomes, especially the quality of colonoscopy in the area of gastroenterology. Real time use of computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) for adenoma using AI systems were developed and proven to be useful to help endoscopists to distinguish neoplastic polyps from non-adenomatous polyps. However, these studies only examined diminutive polyp but not polyp of larger size (>5mm). They were conducted with small sample size of less than few hundred subjects and the study settings were open-label and non-randomized. The investigators aim to conduct a large scale randomized controlled trial to evaluate the performance of colorectal polyp characterization of all size polyps by real-time CADx using AI system against conventional colonoscopy with optical diagnosis.
Colonoscopy is the gold standard modality for the detection of colonic polyp. However, miss polyp occurs especially in right sided colon. Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the modality to improve polyp detection but the benefit of AI in operators with different endoscopic experience is still limited. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of AI in the detection of right sided colonic polyp in operators with different endoscopic experience by using double insertion of right side colon, back-to-back basis.
