Artificial intelligence (AI) systems based on machine learning have evolved in the last few years with an increasing applicability in gastrointestinal endoscopy. Thanks to AI, an image (input) can be transformed into a clinical decision (output). Although AI systems have been initially studied to improve detection (CADe) and characterization of colorectal lesions (CADx), other indications are being currently investigated as detection of blind spots, scope guidance, or delineation/measurement of lesions. The objective of these review is to summarize the current evidence on applicability of AI systems in gastrointestinal endoscopy, highlight strengths and limitations of the technology and review regulatory and ethical aspects for its general implementation in gastrointestinal endoscopy.

A 71-year-old man presented for a routine physical examination with multiple comorbidities, including severe panvascular disease and valvulopathy, requiring anticoagulation therapy. He had a history of chronic hemolytic anemia and had been taking oral ferrous sulfate for two years. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) was performed, as part of the study of the persist anemia, revealing an extensive nodular area with multiple brownish deposits and spontaneous hemorrhage.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common and second most deadly cancer worldwide. Despite advances in screening and treatment, CRC is heterogeneous and the response to therapy varies significantly, limiting personalized treatment options. Certain molecular biomarkers, including microsatellite instability (MSI), are critical in planning personalized treatment, although only a subset of patients may benefit.
