Speare Memorial Hospital is committed to helping prevent colorectal cancer – the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the US – using the latest artificial intelligence-assisted technologies. The experts at Plymouth General Surgery are performing cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted colorectal screenings using the GI Genius™ intelligent endoscopy module, the first and only AI system available in the nation to help in polyp detection during colonoscopy. No other hospital in New Hampshire is offering this technology.

Because a majority of colorectal cancer deaths are preventable with a colon screening, Speare is focused on meeting the community’s medical needs by providing its skillful team at Plymouth General Surgery with the latest technologies and procedures.

The GI Genius™ adds the power of artificial intelligence to routine colonoscopies. This “smart” technology analyzes what our doctors view in real-time and works together with them to keep an eye out for anything worth a closer look. By instantly flagging potential abnormalities for our physicians to assess, the GI Genius™ can help detect lesions, including precancerous polyps.
