GI Genius™

Real time AI, redefining colonoscopy

GI Genius™ is the first deep learning–based, real-time AI system designed to support gastroenterologists during colonoscopy.

Medtronic is the sole distributor,
marketer and owner of GI Genius trademarks.

Greater confidence. Greater care.

Powered by Artificial Intelligence, the GI Genius™ intelligent endoscopy module offers a transformative solution to address challenges in colorectal screening. Integrating seamlessly with existing endoscopy processes, it harnesses deep learning algorithms to assist in clinical decision-making in real time, using visual markers to alert physicians to the presence of lesions.

Clinical evidence shows that GI Genius™ significantly improves diagnostic performance compared to standard high-definition white-light colonoscopy giving clinicians greater accuracy and patients greater confidence.

Seamless integration. Effortless flow.

Designed for seamless integration, GI Genius™ works with all major endoscopic processors fitting effortlessly into existing workflows without the need for major equipment upgrades.

Integration Step 1

GI Genius™ polyp detection demonstrates consistent improvement in adenoma detection across multiple large-scale studies. The largest real-world, randomized controlled, multi center COLO-DETECT trial2, showed an 8.2% absolute increase in adenoma detection rate (56.6% vs 48.8%) and a 38% relative increase in sessile serrated lesions detected per procedure (10.9% vs 7.9%).
