5 Minimum evidence standards

All 5 AI software technologies have some clinical evidence suggesting that they increase ADR as measured by risk ratios. However the committee concluded that ADR does not capture the full clinical benefit, particularly in relation to long-term outcomes like post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer rates. Evidence relating to this was not seen for any technologies. None of the technologies reported any safety concerns.

Further to this, the committee has indicated that it may be able to recommend AI software technologies in this topic area, in the future, that have evidence for the impact of the technology on the:

  • improvement of ADR, by adenoma type and size

  • change in post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer rates

  • clinical management following polyp identification.
