Using artificial intelligence for bladder cancer detection during cystoscopy and its impact on clinical outcomes: a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Cystoscopy has revolutionised the process of diagnosing bladder cancer leading to better categorisation of risk levels and more precise treatment plans. Nonetheless, concerns arise about the lack of uniformity among observers in predicting tumour stage and grade. To address these concerns, artificial intelligence (AI) is being incorporated into clinical settings to aid in the analysis of diagnostic and therapeutic images. The subsequent report outlines a systematic review and meta-analysis protocol aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of AI in predicting bladder cancer based on cystoscopic images.
