GI Genius was trained to recognize cancer with 13 million images of polyps. GI Genius detected lesions at a 46 percent higher rate than standard colonoscopies that don’t use AI, according to the Sept. 28 report.

The tool will be used in four Intermountain Health hospitals: Intermountain Fillmore, Intermountain Delta Community, Intermountain Cedar City and Intermountain Heber Valley.

Salt Lake City-based Intermountain Healthcare is the first health system in Utah to use GI Genius.
