The Promise and Limitations of AI for Improving Colonoscopy
- Evidence on whether AI improves adenoma detection is mixed - some studies show benefit, others show no effect
- Benefits of AI may depend on endoscopist experience level and engagement with the technology
- AI has potential to improve detection, especially for less experienced endoscopists, but experienced endoscopists can benefit too
- More research is needed to improve AI algorithms, characterization of lesions, and integration into clinical practice
- Professional GI societies are developing guidance on appropriate use of AI tools to support high-quality colonoscopy
