Israeli AI-assisted colonoscopy technology has been given the seal of approval from the internationally respected Lancet Digital Health (opens in a new tab) journal, following an extensive study of its capabilities.
The novel polyp detection system developed by Haifa-based MAGENTIQ-EYE (opens in a new tab) was studied by the Lancet over a 14-month period at 10 leading medical centers around the world, involving 31 endoscopists and 952 patients.
The study (opens in a new tab), titled “A computer-aided polyp detection system in screening and surveillance colonoscopy: an international, multicentre, randomised, tandem trial,” found that the MAGNETIQ-EYE platform increases the average detection rate for adenoma (non-cancerous or pre-cancerous tumors) by 7 percent, and had a 17-percent lower rate of missed detection of adenoma.
MAGNETIQ-EYE CEO Dror Zur is a Technion alumnus.
