A study published in The Lancet Digital Health found that using computer-aided detection (CAD) software during nonimmunochemical fecal occult blood test (iFOBT) screening and surveillance colonoscopies can reduce the adenoma miss rate (AMR) compared to conventional colonoscopy. The study, a randomized controlled trial, showed that the CAD system increased the detection of adenomas in colonoscopies. The CAD approach was associated with higher adenoma detection rates and lower AMR compared to conventional colonoscopy. The results were consistent across study sites and indications, indicating the potential clinical relevance of CAD systems in improving colonoscopy outcomes.
