Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Agreement between optical- and histology-based post-polypectomy surveillance intervals according to United States Multi-Society Task Force (USMSTF) guidelines
The concordance between the follow-up intervals determined by endoscopists (integrating polyp pathology under high diagnostic confidence and pathology results under low diagnostic confidence) and the follow-up intervals based solely on pathological results, as recommended by the U.S. 2020 USMSTF consensus for post-polypectomy surveillance.
14 days
Negative Predictive Value for Diagnosing Neoplastic Lesions in Rectosigmoid Diminutive Polyps under High Confidence

Study Arms (2)
CADx assisted colonoscopy group
EXPERIMENTALRoutine colonoscopy group
NO INTERVENTIONEndoscopists perform standard endoscopic diagnosis using conventional NBI-based NICE classification without AI assistance.
Interventions
CADx assists endoscopists in diagnosing colorectal diminutive polyps (\<=5cm) during colonoscopy using narrow-band imaging (NBI). The system provides real-time prediction values of NICE classification for colorectal polyp. The intervention group receives AI-assisted diagnostic information displayed
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Agree to participate in this prospective randomized controlled study;
- Age ≥18 years for colonoscopy;
- At least one colorectal diminutive polyp (size \<=5mm) found during examination;
You may not qualify if:
- Already participating in other clinical trials, having signed informed consent and being in the follow-up period of other clinical trials;
- Already participating in drug clinical trials and being in the washout period of experimental or control drugs;
- History of drug or alcohol abuse or psychological disorders in the past five years;
- Pregnant or lactating patients;
- Known polyposis syndromes;
- Patients with gastrointestinal bleeding;
- Previous history of inflammatory bowel disease, colorectal cancer, or colorectal surgery;
- Patients with contraindications to tissue biopsy;
- Previous history of allergic reactions to bowel cleansing agent components;
- Suffering from intestinal obstruction or perforation, toxic megacolon, heart failure (Grade III or IV), severe cardiovascular disease, severe liver failure, or renal insufficiency, etc.;
- Patient's bowel preparation BBPS score \<6 for this colonoscopy;
- Researchers consider the patient unsuitable for trial participation.
