Despite the widespread use of colonoscopy, the ongoing challenge of potentially missing polyps remains. Previous studies have independently shown that both Endocuff, a colonoscope attachment device for polyp detection, and Computer-Aided Detection (CADe) systems have individually demonstrated enhanced lesion detection and safety. This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy of combining the Endocuff CADe versus using CADe alone in colonoscopy procedures for colorectal cancer screening and surveillance. This research project aims to ascertain whether the synergistic application of these technologies yields superior outcomes.
