Methods
ESCC
ADVERSE EVENTS, SECONDARY
This study followed a single-center prospective single-arm non-inferiority design. Patients at high risk for ESCC were recruited and real-time diagnosis by the AI system was compared with that of endoscopists for lesions suspected to be ESCC. The primary outcomes were the diagnostic accuracy of the AI system and endoscopists. The secondary outcomes were sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and adverse events.
