Background: Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of computer-aided detection (CADe) system-enhanced colonoscopy compared with conventional colonoscopy suggest increased adenoma detection rate (ADR) and decreased adenoma miss rate (AMR), but the effect on detection of advanced colorectal neoplasia (ACN) is unclear.
Purpose: To conduct a systematic review to compare performance of CADe-enhanced and conventional colonoscopy.
Data Sources: Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Ovid EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science Core Collection databases were searched through February 2024.

- Skin cancer cases are on the rise, and in 2015, Germany made a law to let patients ask for a second medical opinion about their diagnosis and treatment.
