The Fujifilm firm is recognized for its old cameras and photographic film and also for X-rays, but now it has also launched artificial intelligence software that helps recognize colon polyps.

The name of this software is CAD Eye and it has been incorporated into the equipment in the endoscopy areas. This software has a specific function for the characterization of colon polyps that uses an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system based on the Deep Learningwhich is a branch of AI that mimics the functioning of the human brain and is capable of learning from high-definition video and images.

This Artificial Intelligence tool offers results that improve diagnoses

Thanks to this learning, professionals can obtain results that improve diagnoses, creating a histological prediction about the suspicious polyps that appear in the image and that can determine if they are hyperplastic or neoclassical.

When the system detects a suspicious polyp within the endoscopy image, it indicates the area where it is located, accompanied by an audible signal and without the need to perform complicated operations, such as magnification and image capture, since it is activated automatically.

The colonoscopies learning curve can improve

It can be said that, thanks to this software, the learning curve of colonoscopies can be greatly improved. With the assistance of CAD Eye Detection, an increase in the polyp detection rate (PDR) can possibly be seen and even non-endoscopic experts could get considerably closer to this level.

This software has the potential to reduce the cost of histopathology by reducing unnecessary biopsies taken during endoscopies. CAD Eye is available with any 700 series colonoscope already on the market and requires no operation such as magnification to activate. Endoscopies can simply use the normal reach, instantly providing this powerful support tool.
