OBSERVATION
PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ assists endoscopists in finding potential polyps during a colonoscopy examination.
Multiple factors are considered to have a negative impact on the detection rate, one of them being human factor.
PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ offers you major benefits
GET HIGHLY FOCUSED ASSISTANCE In your exams
1
Colorectal cancer prevention is the primary goal of screening and diagnostic colonoscopy. At least 50% of all interval carcinomas (iCRCs) arise from missed lesions during colonoscopy.
PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ has a high potential to contribute in decreasing the appearance of (interval) colorectal cancer by assisting endoscopists in finding potential polyps during a colonoscopy examination. This might influence the frequency of the examination interval.
FIND MORE POLYPS THAN EVER BEFORE
2
Each 1.0% increase of the detection rate is associated with up to 3.0% decreased risk of iCRCs . Average CRCancer cost per treatment of patient is 35.000€ .
PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ could potentially contribute to improving health care cost-efficiency.

Expert curated database
with thousands of images
PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ learned from a database of images including the most difficult lesions. This database contains thousands of dedicated images of each kind of polyp, annotated by renowned CRC centers worldwide. With this database, PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ assists endoscopists in finding potential polyps during a colonoscopy examination.
The Artificial Intelligence was trained with thousands images, using its „Deep Learning“ capabilities.
Each image was annotated by experienced colonoscopy experts around the globe.
The database enables PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ to recognize lesions even in tough conditions.

The PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ uses advanced artificial intelligence to highlight the presence of pre-cancerous lesions with a visual marker in real-time – serving as an ever vigilant second observer.
“
Prof Peter Siersema,
Professor of Endoscopic Gastrointestinal Oncology,
Editor-in-Chief, Endoscopy, Radboud University, Netherlands
Computer-aided detection has been shown to increase the detection of pre-cancerous colorectal lesions. The introduction of the PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™artificial intelligence system opens the door to a new era where endoscopists and PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ jointly reduce health-care costs by decreasing the prevalence of colorectal cancer.
“
Major benefits
In our fight against CRC we have already achieved a lot. We increased the adenoma detection rate (ADR) by up to 11% with digital and optical enhancement technology. We increased ADR by up to 28% by mechanical devices to examine blind spots. However, up to 26% of lesions are still missed in examinations. That’s why we’re committed to developing new solutions to overcome daily challenges in colonoscopy routines.
26%
Through digital and optical image enhancement we were able to increase adenoma detection rates (ADR) by up to 11% .
VISIBILITY
By using mechanical enhancement technology such as RetroView™ and G-EYE the ADR could be increased by up to 28% .
BLIND SPOTS
The unsolved challenge so far was the human factor. Now PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™ will help you solve this, as well. It helps you in times of distraction or fatigue to constantly detect polyp and lesion in real time, employing artificial intelligence.

3) According to studies miss rates for polyps of any size are approximately 22 – 26%, and an AMR (adenoma miss rate) of 27% for serrated polyps. Missed lesions may have the possibility to develop into cancer.
