Core Tip
Core Tip: Colon capsule endoscopy (CCE) generates a vast amount of image material-currently, this material must be assessed manually. Artificial intelligence (AI) as an adjunct to CCE has been reported as having high accuracy for detecting colonic lesions. Future studies need to evaluate AI algorithms for estimating the likelihood of neoplasia and predicting which patients are most likely to benefit from CCE. Onboard capsule intelligence has the potential to generate result reports immediately after completed examinations.
