Colorectal cancer (CRC) screening is crucial for early detection and reducing mortality, yet current colonoscopy techniques face challenges such as variable adenoma detection rates (ADR) and the risk of missed diagnoses for subtle lesions. This study is a prospective, multi-center, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial aiming to validate the clinical value of an AI-assisted diagnostic system in improving screening quality. A total of 3300 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to undergo either AI-assisted colonoscopy (Experimental Group) or conventional high-definition colonoscopy (Control Group). The primary objective is to compare the ADR between the two groups. Secondary objectives include assessing the detection rate of advanced or specific types of polyps, the mean number of adenomas per procedure, and the impact of the AI system on both patient and physician satisfaction. The study will provide high-quality evidence for the standardized application of AI technology in CRC screening, with the ultimate goal of reducing the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer.
