Overview

CADDIE by Odin Medical Limited (trading as Odin Vision) is an innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) system designed to revolutionize endoscopy. It supports gastroenterologists in the real-time detection and characterization of colorectal polyps during colonoscopy procedures. The system leverages secure cloud technology, streaming video from the endoscopy stack to the cloud for real-time analysis, and then sending results back to the endoscopy monitor. CADDIE provides visual markers and audio alerts to highlight potential polyps, aiding endoscopists in their decision-making. Beyond polyp detection and characterization (identifying them as adenoma or non-adenoma), CADDIE also offers features like AI for bowel cleanliness, displaying the percentage of visible mucosa, and AI for caecum identification to ensure thorough examinations. Its user-friendly interface and vendor-neutral design allow for seamless integration into existing clinical workflows with minimal training required.

What Physicians Need to Know

Polyp Detection During Colonoscopy
CADDIE provides real-time, AI-powered assistance for detecting and characterizing colorectal polyps during colonoscopy procedures. It highlights potential polyps with visual markers (green rectangles) and audible alerts.
Real-Time Endoscopy AI
The system analyzes live video feeds from the endoscope in real-time, leveraging cloud technology to process images and send results back to the endoscopy monitor instantly.
Adenoma Detection Rate Improvement
Clinical trials, such as the EAGLE trial, have demonstrated that CADDIE significantly improves the Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR), including for hard-to-detect and clinically relevant lesions like large adenomas and sessile serrated lesions (SSLs), without increasing procedural risks or duration.
GI Pathology Analysis
CADDIE supports polyp characterization by displaying information related to the visual characteristics of polyps, aiding endoscopists in optically diagnosing tissue as adenoma or non-adenoma. This can potentially reduce the reliance on immediate histopathology.
Procedure Documentation
The tool includes AI features for assessing bowel cleanliness by displaying the percentage of visible mucosa and for confirming caecal intubation by identifying the Appendiceal Orifice (AO) and reminding users to activate polyp detection during withdrawal.
Quality Metrics Tracking
CADDIE enhances colonoscopy quality by improving polyp detection rates, particularly for significant lesions, and by providing objective metrics for bowel preparation and caecal intubation, which are key performance indicators.
Endoscopy System Compatibility
CADDIE is designed for vendor neutrality, integrating seamlessly with existing clinical workflows and standard white-light endoscopy equipment from various manufacturers, including Olympus's EVIS X1 system. It can be configured for single or dual monitor use and deployed as a standalone unit or via the cloud.
Physician Tip

Leverage CADDIE as an intelligent 'second pair of eyes' to augment your detection capabilities, especially for subtle or hard-to-find polyps. Pay attention to the real-time visual highlights and audio alerts, and utilize the AI-driven characterization support for optical diagnosis. Actively use the bowel cleanliness and caecum confirmation features to ensure high-quality procedural standards. Remember that CADDIE is an assistive tool; final clinical judgment and decision-making remain with the endoscopist. Minimal training is required due to its intuitive interface.

CADDIE is a cloud-based AI system, ensuring continuous, automatic software and algorithm updates without requiring on-site engineering visits or downtime. Its vendor-neutral design allows for easy integration with existing endoscopy equipment and clinical workflows, either as a standalone computer on the endoscopy stack or through its secure cloud solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

CADDIE integrates seamlessly into current clinical workflows, providing real-time visual information and audio alerts on the endoscopy monitor to highlight potential polyps. Its primary function is to assist endoscopists in detecting and characterizing colorectal polyps, as well as assessing bowel cleanliness and confirming caecal anatomy during colonoscopy procedures.
CADDIE is a CE-marked device and has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance, indicating its compliance with medical device regulations. It utilizes secure cloud-based technology with industry-standard security controls to stream and analyze data in real-time, ensuring data privacy and enabling remote updates.
Currently, alternatives primarily involve traditional colonoscopy methods reliant solely on the endoscopist's visual inspection and experience. While other AI-powered computer-aided detection (CADe) systems exist or are emerging, CADDIE is noted as the first cloud-based AI technology for this purpose, offering advantages like remote updates and flexible deployment.
CADDIE is designed for on-demand service and can be deployed in all endoscopy rooms, offering per-procedure cost-effectiveness. Its cloud-based architecture allows for subscription-based procurement models, which can reduce hardware barriers and provide access to the latest AI innovations without requiring on-site engineers for updates.
The CADDIE device is limited to use with standard white-light endoscopy imaging only and is not intended to replace a full patient evaluation or serve as the primary tool for diagnosis or treatment planning. The endoscopist remains responsible for reviewing suspected polyp areas and confirming their presence based on their own medical judgment.
