Abstract

Abstract:

Colorectal cancer is a common malignant tumor of the digestive tract. The incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer are on the rise world widely. Early diagnosis and treatment are the key factors to improve prognosis of patients. Artificial intelligence (AI) has been studied continuously since its appearance, and has made great progress in recent years. In medicine, the application of AI in endoscopy, medical imaging and pathology can provide reliable reference advice for doctors, reduce the differences due to experience between doctors, and help doctors make more accurate diagnosis decisions, especially in cancer. AI technology has been implemented in the diagnosis and prevention of colorectal cancer and are proven to be very helpful for gastrointestinests, there are still limitations in its clinical application, which need to be further improved.

Key words: Colorectal neoplasms, Artificial intelligence, Diagnosis
