Artificial Intelligence-assisted Versus Conventional Colonoscopy for Adenoma and Polyp Detection Rates: A Meta-analysis of Recent Randomized and Quasi-randomized Trials
Year: 2026
Type: review
Study designs: Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis
Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based computer-aided detection (CADe) has been associated with improved adenoma detection during colonoscopy. However, prior meta-analyses synthesized earlier trials, and whether the benefit remains consistent in recent contemporary trials is uncertain. This meta-analysis aimed to estimate the effects of current-generation AI-assisted colonoscopy on adenoma detection rate (ADR) as the primary outcome and polyp detection rate (PDR) as the secondary outcome in randomized and quasi-randomized trials published from August 1, 2024, to August 18, 2026, without re-pooling trials included in earlier comprehensive meta-analyses.
