'We are delighted with the outcome of this trial. Simply put, it will save lives,' Professor Colin Rees. We've been part of an exciting new trial that has found that AI shows greater efficiency in detecting early signs of bowel cancer! 🔬 #WeAreNCL ncl.ac.uk/press/articles/lat…

Proud to have been PI for the COLODETECT study @KGHEndoscopy @ResearchKgh published in @LancetGastroHep This study shown that using GI genius increases polyp detection during colonoscopy. Suggests that AI is useful to give a small (statistically significant) gain in polyp detection (like endocuff vision) #marginalgains - reducing the risk of bowel cancer. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
