Post written by Jonathan Makar, BSc, from The University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Our study focuses on the impact of computer-aided detection (CADe) systems and their role in improving adenoma detection during colonoscopy. These novel artificial intelligence (AI) systems aim to address endoscopist recognition failure and improve colonoscopy performance, as they are not subject to human …

The best of colonoscopy in 2024
Post written by David L. Diehl, MD, FASGE, from the Departments of Medicine and Pathology, Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine, and the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pennsylvania, USA. It was a fun but challenging task to pick the top articles on colonoscopy published in 2024. The fun part was seeing how the very …
Virtual reality intervention to improve quality of care during colonoscopy: a hybrid type 1 randomized controlled trial
Post written by Mahdi Shamali, PhD, from Copenhagen University Hospital–Herlev and Gentofte, Copenhagen, Denmark. This study explored an innovative approach using virtual reality (VR) as a nonpharmacologic tool to manage pain, anxiety, and discomfort during colonoscopies. Colonoscopy procedures often induce stress and discomfort, affecting patient willingness to complete the procedure and comply with follow-ups. Our research tested …

Impact of study design on adenoma detection in the evaluation of artificial intelligence–aided colonoscopy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Post written by Chae Min Michelle Lee, MD, MEng, from the Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Department of Medicine, University Health Network, and Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Numerous trials have been conducted to examine the role of artificial intelligence (AI) assistance in polyp detection during colonoscopy. Available AI detection tools rely …
Artificial intelligence–assisted real-time monitoring of effective withdrawal time during colonoscopy: a novel quality marker of colonoscopy
Post written by Wai K. Leung, MD, from the University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China. In this study, we developed a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-based quantitative measurement for effective withdrawal time (EWT) during colonoscopy. This measurement also takes into consideration the quality of the images obtained during colonoscope withdrawal. Standard withdrawal time, a simple measurement …
Comparison of the efficacy and safety of an oral sulfate solution and 3-L polyethylene glycol on bowel preparation before colonoscopy: a phase III multicenter randomized controlled trial
Post written by Peng Pan, MD, from the Department of Gastroenterology, Changhai Hospital, Naval Military Medical University, Shanghai, China. The oral sulfate solution (OSS) split-dose regimen has been evaluated in several trials by comparing 2-L polyethylene glycol (PEG) plus ascorbic acid or 4-L PEG using the split-dose or same-day method. These studies showed that OSS was …
