MAGENTIQ-COLO
Overview
MAGENTIQ-COLO™ by Magentiq Eye is an AI-powered computer-aided detection (CADe) and computer-aided diagnosis (CADx) system designed to assist gastroenterologists during colonoscopy procedures. It utilizes deep learning, computer vision, and video analysis technologies to provide real-time detection and highlighting of suspicious lesions and polyps, enhancing the physician’s attentiveness and improving diagnostic accuracy. The system also offers advanced features such as polyp size estimation, characterization, and AI-based endoscopic tool detection. It integrates seamlessly into the clinical workflow, acquiring digital video signals from existing endoscopy towers and presenting detected polyps with bounding boxes on a separate screen or the main monitor. MAGENTIQ-COLO™ has demonstrated significant improvements in adenoma detection rate (ADR) and a reduction in adenoma miss rate (AMR) in clinical studies, contributing to earlier detection of colorectal cancer and potentially saving lives. Beyond real-time assistance, the system supports procedural quality (CAQ) metrics, including automated Boston Bowel Preparation Score assessment and cecum detection, and enables structured reporting with exportable videos and procedure summaries.

What Physicians Need to Know
Leverage MAGENTIQ-COLOu2122 as a tireless 'second eye' to enhance polyp detection and reduce miss rates during colonoscopies, particularly for subtle or transient lesions. Utilize the real-time polyp size and type characterization to inform immediate clinical decisions. Integrate the automated reporting and quality metrics for streamlined documentation and to consistently meet and exceed quality standards. Future versions are expected to include AI tools for IBD Mayo scoring and early dysplasia detection in IBD and Barrett's esophagus, expanding its utility in specialized GI diagnostics.
MAGENTIQ-COLOu2122 is engineered for seamless integration into existing colonoscopy workflows, connecting directly to standard endoscopy towers. It is compatible with major endoscopy manufacturers like Olympus, Fujinon, Pentax, and Sonoscape, ensuring broad applicability without requiring significant changes to current equipment setups. The system also features AI-based endoscopic tool detection to temporarily remove overlays when instruments enter the field of view, maintaining an unobstructed view during interventions.
