Computer-aided Detection During Screening Colonoscopy (Experts)

Evaluation of the colonic mucosa with a high definition colonoscope (EPKi7010 video processor).
The endoscopy images will be seen on a 27inch, flat-panel, high-definition LCD monitor (Radiance ultraSC-WU27-G1520 model) only by one expert endoscopist, randomly assigned.
The number, location, and polyps’ features (Paris classification) will be recorded by the operator. If a polyp is detected, the endoscopist will remove the polyp endoscopically with a cold snare.
The same patient will be submitted to a second, the same session, computed aided real-time colonoscopy using the DISCOVERY, AI-assisted polyp detector. Colonoscopy will be performed by a same-level-of-expertise operator in comparison to the initial procedure. Any polyp or lesion detected with the AI system will be recorded and endoscopically removed and considered as a missed lesion from standard colonoscopy.
