Devices for adenoma detection rate: Holy Grail or training tool?

A relationship between endoscopists' adenoma detection rate (ADR) at colonoscopy and risk of interval colorectal cancer and colorectal cancer death has been proven.1-3 Since then, ADR became one of the most important performance indicators for colonoscopy, endorsed by several professional societies.4,5 Although ADR depends on adenoma prevalence in the target population,6-8 it is endoscopist performance that best explains observed ADR variability among physicians.9 Four key factors are believed to drive endoscopists' performance in detecting adenomas: knowledge, imaging technology, colonoscopy examination technique, and motivation/nontechnical skills.
