Use of AI provided a pooled 22 percent increase in adenoma detection but no significant impact for advanced adenomas, according to an analysis of 39 randomized controlled trials examining AI’s impact in detecting colorectal cancer.
A new meta-analysis of 49 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) revealed mixed results for adjunctive AI in improving detection for a variety of cancers on medical imaging.
For the meta-analysis, recently published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, researchers reviewed data from 49 RCTs with colorectal cancer (CRC) imaging accounting for nearly 80 percent of the reviewed studies. The research also included evaluations of single RCTs assessing AI for prostate cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer detection.
For RCTs assessing AI for CRC...
