What You'll Learn
AI-assisted endoscopy is transforming how we detect, diagnose, and manage GI lesions — but what does the evidence actually show, and what are the risks of becoming dependent on these systems?
This focused 90-minute webinar brings together two leading researchers to tackle the most pressing questions in AI endoscopy: from polyp detection and optical diagnosis in colonoscopy, to real-time Barrett's surveillance and the emerging deskilling debate.
Key Topics
- CADe performance in practice — What the RCTs show vs. real-world implementation
- Optical diagnosis with AI (CADx) — Can we safely adopt resect-and-discard strategies?
- The deskilling dilemma — Evidence that AI exposure may reduce endoscopist skill
- Barrett's AI detection — From 89.9% accuracy in research to your endoscopy suite
- Multimodal AI imaging — Combining WLE, NBI, and TXI for improved Barrett's assessment
- Human-AI interaction — How examiner confidence changes when AI is present
Expert Faculty
Prof. Cesare Hassan
Humanitas University & Humanitas Research Hospital, Milan
Lead author of the ESGE AI Curriculum and the EAGLE trial on cloud-based AI for neoplasia detection. Prof. Hassan's meta-analyses in Gastroenterology have defined the evidence base for AI in colonoscopy, while his recent work in The Lancet Gastroenterology & Hepatology on deskilling risk provides a critical counterpoint to AI enthusiasm.
Prof. Dr. Alanna Ebigbo
St. Josef-University Hospital, Bochum
Pioneer of real-time AI for Barrett's oesophagus detection, with landmark publications in Gut and Endoscopy. Dr. Ebigbo's research on multimodal imaging (WLE/NBI/TXI) integration with AI, and her 2026 work on human-AI interaction and examiner confidence, represents the cutting edge of upper GI artificial intelligence.
Who Should Attend?
- Gastroenterologists considering or already using AI in their endoscopy suite
- Endoscopists who want to understand the evidence behind commercial AI systems
- Barrett's surveillance endoscopists interested in AI-assisted detection
- GI trainees wanting a research-grounded introduction to AI in endoscopy
- Endoscopy unit managers evaluating AI technology adoption
