Core Tip

Core Tip: Use of computer aided detection (CADe) in colonoscopy has been shown to increase polyp and adenoma detection rates compared to standard high-definition colonoscopy with little added procedure time. Additionally, CADe have been built to increase quality of screening colonoscopy. These advantages and features have been demonstrated in blinded and non-blinded randomized controlled trials.
