PENTAX Medical DISCOVERY™: Computer Aided Detection
Detect more clinically relevant lesions with AI at your side. The Discovery is the world's first AI‑based computer-aided detection system proven to significantly boost the detection of SSLs per colonoscopy, even for expert practitioners.
Trained for Real‑World Application
To support you in your daily practice the Discovery learned from real‑world case images. Our expert-contributed database contains images that were recorded and annotated by renowned CRC centers worldwide.
We deliberately included images of subtle lesions, cases with insufficient bowel preparation, as well as images of lesions being out of focus, off‑center, or suboptimally illuminated in our training database to ensure optimal performance in your daily practice.
AI at your Side for perfect Synergy
See for yourself how you can make a difference for yourself and for your patients with AI at your side.
Studies Show the Real Effect
With Discovery, even colonoscopy experts were able to find more clinically relevant lesions than ever.
Within our global multi-center randomized controlled trial, Discovery was able to significantly increase the detection of SSLs even among experts. The absolute increase of Sessile Serrated Lesion per Colonoscopy (SSLPC) has been 11% (19% vs 30%, p=0.049).
Each 1 % increase in the SSL detection rate is associated with a 7 % decrease of risk of interval post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer.
Simple Setup – Simple Choice
To make your upgrade to AI as easy as possible, Discovery adapts to your setup.

Key Benefits of Discovery AI at a Glance
1. Detect More Clinically Relevant Lesions
Discovery is the first AI system to demonstrate a significant increase in SSL detection: In our study experts increased their detection of SSLs by 11 % per colonoscopy.
2. Increase your Confidence in your Examination
It supports experts as well as gastroenterology fellows and helps them increase their confidence in their skills and the examination outcome.
3. Decrease the Risk of Colorectal Cancer
Detecting more SSLs improves the patient’s quality of life. Increasing the detection rate of SSLs in the proximal colon by 1 % is associated with a decrease in colorectal cancer risk by 7 %.
Making Your Upgrade to AI Endoscopy as Easy as Possible
Artificial Intelligence is a tool like many others that helps you to provide the best care possible. Hence, the DISCOVERY is compatible with all of them so that you don't have to worry about integration.
