A standard colonoscopy will be performed according to the standard of routine care. All optically diagnosed polyps will be removed and sent to the CHUM pathology laboratory for histopathological evaluation according to institutional standards. The AI system will capture video of the procedure in real time, and provide additional information on the detection of polyps, follow-up and prediction of pathology. The full-length colonoscopy videos will be annotated for the exact time of the identification of the anatomical landmarks, polyps, also for polyp- and procedural-related characteristics.

The AI system will capture the live video of the procedure and the AI feedback (polyp detection, tracking, and pathology prediction) will be shown on a second screen installed next to the regular endoscopy screen. Screen A will show the regular endoscopy image and screen B will show the regular endoscopy image together with the areas that might harbor a polyp or the information to predict pathology
